it wasn't at a tournament, but my first or second year coaching, we had these two brothers. jacob and curtis, man they would push each other in practice. curtis was older, but they were the best partner for each other, i hated matching them against each other, but it happened. this day was especially bad i seperated them at least three times. then we get to live wrestling, i wasn't paying attention and another coach paired them up!!! about a minute into it, i hear jacob let out a terrifying scream, he starts punching curtis. they're swinging and yelling, when i get over there, they are both in tears, huffing and puffing. i said boys what is the matter, "jacob that headlock was legal, and you certainly weren't getting choked, you screamed too loud!" he says:
" i wasn't getting choked, i couldn't hear!!!"
"what?"
"i couldn't hear, curtis, i couldn't hear!!!"
jacob takes another swing at curtis, "curtis i can't hear!!!"
to this day some of the other kids (adults now) will yell when the see a headlock thrown. "curtis i can't hear!!!"
