Punched someone or been punched by someone in the face
This is turning up some great memories. As schoolkid, there was a rough pub that we could get served in. One night, a bunch of us were in looking like adults, and we heard some noises coming from the back room, a little sort of function room with a square of laminate flooring to dance on. We went to see, because it sounded a bit like a fight. In fact, it was the Thursday Night Punch In the Pus Contest (god knows if it happened any other night). The rules – very simple. Two men face up to each other on the "dancefloor" and someone tosses coin. Winner goes first, and strikes (a Punch) the other in the facial area (The Pus). Assuming the Punchee doesn't fall down, the Punchee becomes the Puncher, and gets to punch back. And so on, till one of them does fall down. Winner is last man standing.
I have never taken part in a Punch In The Pus Contest
I have however seen one of my schoolmates get punched in the pus so hard he took off
