What with the attack demon monkey thread, I wonder if something is in the air or maybe the phases of the moon, cause I heard that the mad Rock rep at a trade show in Germany hit a guy in the head with a beer mug for no apparent reason.
Supposed to be witnesses, but police were sent away. Anyone else hear about this?

Yes this is a true story. Joe Garland, who is the inporter of mad rock hit the sales manager for Sterling Rope. He a stepped back out of the eye of sterling employee and sucker punched him in the temple. Joe has been slinging the sh#t on the web for too long, and when someone had the balls to call him out on it, he took the pussy way out and sent the punch. I know Joe, and i personally think he is slimy, and the fact that he can dish the sh#t but can't take it is no surprise...

Yup, I got this news from the guy that got punched.
Sounds like Joe is a real class act. I feel bad for his employees, Joe's behavior must make it an uphill battle for them to sell the Mad Rock brand in spite of him.

It doesn't help that Mad Rock aren't exactly awe inspiring shoes...
Nice heel cup though.

Must be why they're called Mad Rock.

Yeah, good thing that the booths are located catty corner from each other, across the hall...!
Plenty of space in the climbing area to throw down...geez, they oughta spin this into a crowd pleaser. Some kind of cage match.
