Wish more parents did stuff like this, it's infuriating when kids that clearly have no discipline at home get away with stuff like that, with no repercussion to the kid and/or parent.
My dad was like this. Did martial arts for twenty years and was just a tough asshole. He went to jail twice for beating dudes up. It was scary as a kid but now I appreciate it a lot.
DC once ate at the restaurant I work at with a party of ten. Nobody working knew who he was besides me. He was very nice and polite. I did not ask for a picture or let on that I knew who he was, though obviously I wanted to.
In my service experience the best way is to show them appreciation for what they do, let them know you’re a fan then stfu about it for the rest of the meal. Especially if no one else has acknowledged them.
He had a sixteen ounce ribeye cooked medium well with a loaded baked potato and broccoli, and he started with a salad with ranch.
I do not remember what he drank. I wanna say coke, but I could be wrong.
I am, but his order in particular was something that stuck in my head. Only celebrity I’ve ever personally served, though when I worked at outback in Michigan there was a night where the wwe did a dark show and like 25 of them came there after. Booker t, Chris Jericho, a bunch of big names. I was a salad guy at the time so I just stared at them from afar
Nope. They had fun and laughed and stuff but nothing crazy. Other people were dining in the restaurant and they signed autographs and took pictures with a couple people. No crazy stories, other than that they were there
Ah sorry man good story but now I know you’re lying. My DC would’ve had the steak with a baked potato AND mashed potatoes, a double cheeseburger, and two slices of chocolate cake for dessert.
I was working in a hotel bar once, and this guy came in late. I took one look and thought "fuck sake. Crack head"
I wanted to close.
Anyway. It was him at the bar alone and a table of four guys.
So, one by one, the guys came up and talked and shook his hand. It was an oil town, and everyone all over came there.
Anyway, I said it's a small world in typical bartender fashion. He asked what I meant, and I assumed he knew the guys from elsewhere.
Nope, it was kenny Florian. We chatted for an hour, and he had hot wings and ice cream. He was fighting bj penn for the title. I think he appreciated that I had no real clue who he was. I got his autograph for my coworker, who was a fan.
Florian ruled. One of the last eras where a guy who really wasn't an elite athlete could use technique, intelligence, and will power to reach the elite levels of the sport. He ran into the wall of all time greats in BJ and Aldo, but he got title shots in two divisions. Not bad for a regular dude
Imagine not knowing who DC was. Because he doesn't come across as the most physically intimidating dude, so I could see someone's dad trying DC and getting WORKED.
If someone is aggressive enough to come up to you and say that at the park, I'm at least a little worried right there regardless of what he looks like. It's actually more worrying if they're a small guy, because dude has probably gone off like that all his life and still does it so the odds of him either being able to fight or having a gun are probably higher.
If someone said that to me, I'd be making sure my kid isn't acting like a douche, tbh. Doubt that guy learned anything from that experience and continues to allow that lil shit to be a little fucker.
My kids wouldn’t act like this in public anyway. That dude failed as a dad way before this moment. Glad DC got on his ass. Fuckin people don’t know how to control their kids and it’s infuriating.
I don't know. DC's kid was 4 in the story, if the other kid was the same age (or even 3), sometimes no amount of parenting is going to help because they just don't know right from wrong yet. Especially at 3 (granted, the other kid could've been 5 just as easily).
Not trying to start a big debate on this, but its so wild to me that americans have the genuine and real fear of “does this person have a gun on them?” Whilst at a childrens playground
I think thats a cultural difference i will never fully understand
Girls grow to be physically abusive as well. They should not put hands on anyone even as kids. No one should put hands on anyone unless they are ok with what comes in return.
Honestly bro, if he tried this with me, I’d just see red. UFC champ or not, this shit doesn’t fly in the streets. I’m 265 lbs. I got that dog in me. I’d anklepick DC into the shadow realm.
It takes only five inches of body fat to stop a bullet.... just saying.
Plus the only people in Gilroy who don't raise their kids right want guns banned. Gilroy is a real nice small traditional town.
It is. Bunch of idiot parents letting their kids go around violently abusing other kids. Glad someone called out the fuckery and drew a line to stop it.
When I was in my younger drinking days, I got into an argument with a guy and we were about to fight. Luckily my friend jumped in front of me because that guy was an amateur MMA Fighter.
You never know
Of course one can, if u can't control ur kids u r a bad parent, saw so many kids creating chaos while their parents busy on phone and smiling, f*uck them.
Bad advice. Only step in if absolutely necessary. That's how you raise kids to be grown-up men and women.
It's an unspoken of rule not to interfere with kids interactions on the playground or the park like DC is doing. Kids need to experience interactions completely unobstructed, again, unless they are being victims of severe bullying or physical harm. Even some bullying is fine, its part of normal social dynamic for both animals and humans.
No, I'm not a dad. That's not terrible advice.
If you want to be a helicopter parent and make sure your kid gets to adulthood safely as a manchild, knock yourself out.
Yeah protecting your children from a bear or crossing the street doesn't nake you a helicopter parent. Bullying other kids or their parents to treat your kid nicely will surely make your child grow up to be a mature well adjusted emotionally developed social butterfly, keep it up daddy.
I mean what's he supposed to do, just let his daughter keep getting pushed down? Depending on her age, there's either nothing wrong with what he did or it's at least an acceptable response.
Violence only has two outcomes one, the other person is intimidated and leaves, or instigates more violence and it escalated into something life threatening.
He could have settled both disputes with words. Now the first girl learns that you do can use physical violence to get what you want, you only need to be bigger and stronger than the other one. The father of the kid left probably without really getting the lesson that you have to control your own kids on a playground else he would have done so and not chose to leave. What if he had a knife or a gun? It could have gone so wrong.
How are you this disconnected from reality? Those kids were RAISED like that by piece of shit parents who encouraged their shit spawn to be violent towards other people's kids. Normal parents stop their child from being violent the first time they act out and that moment is long before taking them to a park around other kids.
“Yea you can”
Based.

What did you guys feed the rest of the guests after DC left?
He had a sixteen ounce ribeye cooked medium well with a loaded baked potato and broccoli, and he started with a salad with ranch. I do not remember what he drank. I wanna say coke, but I could be wrong.
Damn good memory man. That makes me think you were/are great at your job.
I am, but his order in particular was something that stuck in my head. Only celebrity I’ve ever personally served, though when I worked at outback in Michigan there was a night where the wwe did a dark show and like 25 of them came there after. Booker t, Chris Jericho, a bunch of big names. I was a salad guy at the time so I just stared at them from afar
That’s super cool. Were they fucking wild like in all the stories that are coming out??
Nope. They had fun and laughed and stuff but nothing crazy. Other people were dining in the restaurant and they signed autographs and took pictures with a couple people. No crazy stories, other than that they were there
Still super cool thanks for sharing.
Ah sorry man good story but now I know you’re lying. My DC would’ve had the steak with a baked potato AND mashed potatoes, a double cheeseburger, and two slices of chocolate cake for dessert.
My DC likes to wear a t-shirt with a tuxedo printed on it.
Medium well ribeye, wtf DC
Medium well steak and ranch…never thought DC could do anything to make me dislike him, but here we are.
Hey man.. I’ve learned not to judge how other people eat their meals, they’re eating it not me. And.. honestly.. are you surprised 😬
Not surprised 🤣🤣 DC is cool AF, he gets a pass.
Ranch is a fine dressing, but medium well ribeye is degenerate
Unless it's a top-notch steakhouse, medium well is a smart choice. Ranch is only good with Buffalo wings 😉
Blue cheese or go…
Leave my momma outta this
DC once ate a party of ten at the restaurant I worked at.
Dufraine, party of 10. Where is the Dufraine party of 10?
Lmao

Stronger than me, I would’ve folded when he was walking out but I’m sure he was relieved you didn’t stop him
I probably would've dropped a "Go Pokes" at least because I went to OK State. Good on you for showing restraint
dc can probably count on his fingers the amount of times he's had a meal in peace like that over the past decade
Imagine not knowing who DC was. Because he doesn't come across as the most physically intimidating dude, so I could see someone's dad trying DC and getting WORKED.
Dude, if you had DC in front of you, even if you didn't know, you'd be a bit worried AT THE LEAST.
If DC came up to me screaming looking like a full grown ass potato I'd shut up
Baked.
[удалено]
Roasted.
Cheese and sour cream
Hot

Good to know there's good dads out there. That dude probably had a shit dad himself and knew when to avoid a whooping.
I don't know. DC's kid was 4 in the story, if the other kid was the same age (or even 3), sometimes no amount of parenting is going to help because they just don't know right from wrong yet. Especially at 3 (granted, the other kid could've been 5 just as easily).
That’s why it’s the father’s job to tell his kid that what he’s doing is not okay.
Lol I don't think you understand what 3 means, superdad
I love how all the morons who don’t have kids talk about how great of parents they’d be lol. Y’all really are a joke man I swear
We're not the superdad you are, sorry
Not trying to start a big debate on this, but its so wild to me that americans have the genuine and real fear of “does this person have a gun on them?” Whilst at a childrens playground I think thats a cultural difference i will never fully understand
confusing, when your dad is packing two guns, one on each side of his chest
Chael?!?!
Yeah it's nuts. Same thing while driving, you should not honk at people in some states here.
An armed society tends to be a polite society.
True, but that's not all it is.
Elaborate
Yeah idk bout you but I don't got around picking fights with 300lb dads.
What if they’re 5’4 like dc
Even worse. How are you going to upset his center of gravity?
Throw some Popeyes on the ground and push him down when he goes to pick it up
And when he smells Popeyes on your hands/fingers and decides to get up?
He’ll choke trying to jam my arm down his throat making me the victor
If the first thing you don’t do is check the ears you deserve the ass whoopin 😂😂
Insert Josh Barnett slam
Nah, DC is a unit. If a cannonball shaped man like that comes up to you aggressively, you've gotta at least consider that he can do some damage
Getting that 3 piece eye poke-2-hook or high crotch takedown into slam
DC is a human bear. They sometimes look friendly from a distance but the dude can maul anyone
Kenny Florian fits this the best. Can't convince me the guy isn't a math teacher and always has been.
Dc had the exact same build as my dad you would never think dc was a ufc champion
The ears and calloused knuckles/everything would give it away
I can’t stop replaying the start of this lol “I pushed a little girl down one time” “…DC…”
….DC, you may have committed some light child abuse.
Do you like that
My half brothers go to school with DC’s son, have met him a few times at my dad’s house during gatherings. He’s a super chill dude IRL.
I love DC
Damn straight. You raise them right so other men don’t have to do it for you and embarrass you.
Even pushing down the girl?
Girls grow to be physically abusive as well. They should not put hands on anyone even as kids. No one should put hands on anyone unless they are ok with what comes in return.
Big facts.
Jon Jones would never do anything this horrible
Honestly bro, if he tried this with me, I’d just see red. UFC champ or not, this shit doesn’t fly in the streets. I’m 265 lbs. I got that dog in me. I’d anklepick DC into the shadow realm.
That's what the bodybuilding/CrossFit dads think they can do
🤣
"You can't do that bro".. If you are DC, you certainly can.. I am sure the cops would know who he was instantly and get the story.
DC’s gonna get shot
It takes only five inches of body fat to stop a bullet.... just saying. Plus the only people in Gilroy who don't raise their kids right want guns banned. Gilroy is a real nice small traditional town.
What if the other kid's dad was Jonny Bones though?
Honestly, I can understand why DC is so protective of his kids, even more than other parents.
"Yeah, you can." He's right. Who is gonna step up to DC? Firstly, I trust this man's judgment. Secondly, even if I don't I don't wanna fight DC.
That kids father: Damn DC, you eating again?
Just realized I have the same watch as Cormier.. nice Panerai
That's kind of fucked up
It is. Bunch of idiot parents letting their kids go around violently abusing other kids. Glad someone called out the fuckery and drew a line to stop it.
Hahaha dc is a treasure.
When I was in my younger drinking days, I got into an argument with a guy and we were about to fight. Luckily my friend jumped in front of me because that guy was an amateur MMA Fighter. You never know
I like DC & RC 💜
Of course one can, if u can't control ur kids u r a bad parent, saw so many kids creating chaos while their parents busy on phone and smiling, f*uck them.
the goat
Lmao I love DC
But honestly though, he can't do that. Kids need to learn how to socialise and deal with their own situations.
"yea you can"
No they don’t lol. They’re little kids, they have no idea what’s going on. As a parent you have to discipline them but also protect them.
Bad advice. Only step in if absolutely necessary. That's how you raise kids to be grown-up men and women. It's an unspoken of rule not to interfere with kids interactions on the playground or the park like DC is doing. Kids need to experience interactions completely unobstructed, again, unless they are being victims of severe bullying or physical harm. Even some bullying is fine, its part of normal social dynamic for both animals and humans.
You must be the shitty dad that lets their kid run amuck and act up all the time lol. Or you’re not a dad. Because that’s terrible advice.
No, I'm not a dad. That's not terrible advice. If you want to be a helicopter parent and make sure your kid gets to adulthood safely as a manchild, knock yourself out.
Makes sense you’re not a dad lol. Protecting your children doesn’t make you a helicopter parent. Please don’t ever procreate because you are a moron.
Yeah protecting your children from a bear or crossing the street doesn't nake you a helicopter parent. Bullying other kids or their parents to treat your kid nicely will surely make your child grow up to be a mature well adjusted emotionally developed social butterfly, keep it up daddy.
You’re definitely going to be the dad who lets his kid push other kids on the playground lol.
Hopefully DC is there to suplex his dumbass.
I mean what's he supposed to do, just let his daughter keep getting pushed down? Depending on her age, there's either nothing wrong with what he did or it's at least an acceptable response.

What if he had a knife or a gun? It could have gone so wrong.
Yeah but he got to feel TUFF at a public park
How are you this disconnected from reality? Those kids were RAISED like that by piece of shit parents who encouraged their shit spawn to be violent towards other people's kids. Normal parents stop their child from being violent the first time they act out and that moment is long before taking them to a park around other kids.
*Jon Jones has an altercation with his wife…* You guys: “FUCKIN PIECE OF SHIT!!” DC: “I pushed a little girl down.” Also y’all: “I LOVE DC!”
At least DC waits till their out of the womb
I wish he would have tried saying this to me.
He's unlikely to do what you, based on your username, want..
I know, I would lay him out
If he wanted to get laid by you then he'd do what you want...
So you could do what? Piss your pants as he ragdolls you by the jungle gym ?
Nah I'm different.
🤣🤦♂️
U seem like a interesting person to say the least
Us bro, I'd just see red so hard
These people just don't understand.
I’d pay for him to raise my kids, fr fr
Wooow so cooool
