Church Deacon, OU Fan Tears Scrotum Of UT Fan In Bar Fight

OKLAHOMA CITY, Okla. -- Aggravated assault charges have been filed against a church deacon and University of Oklahoma Sooners fan after officials say he grabbed a University of Texas fan between the legs during a scuffle in an Oklahoma bar.
A couple of months before the annual Red River Shootout between the Sooners and Longhorns, words were exchanged at Henry Hudson's Pub between Allen Beckett, 53, and Brian Thomas. Witnesses said it was because Thomas was wearing a UT T-shirt.
Neither Thomas or Beckett chose to comment, but the police report described what happened to the victim, including graphic details about his injuries that included a torn scrotal sack with partially exposed testicles.
Beckett's attorney, Billy Bock, said his client's actions were in self-defense.
"Sure, he's an OU fan. Not necessarily an overboard die-hard OU fan, but he certainly admits he said something in a joking fashion to the guy about his Texas T-shirt. The guy got offended. He said he was sorry," said Bock.
Bock said the apology apparently wasn't enough for the Texas fan and the man then approached his client. He said his client then grabbed the man in self-defense.
"The guy came over his other shoulder, and basically said, 'I'm getting ready to kick your you-know-what.' He said he felt threatened and he did what he thought he needed to do and grabbed him and left the bar," said Bock.
Bock adds that his client isn't a hardened criminal, but is a church deacon who makes his living as a government auditor who had gone to the bar that night for one reason -- to play darts.

Stay away from nutsacks, Scott. I know that's asking a lot, but grabbing balls makes you a gay sexual.
If your QB proves to be very good then it'll be a damn good battle, but I have my doubts. Rest of the team looks really good.
I still think a 7pt UT win is in order.
Typical OU fans. They take it waaaay too serious, as do aggie fans.
LOL. You guys say that every year.
Now that is some in-depth reporting.his injuries that included a torn scrotal sack with partially exposed testicles
and until very recently they kicked your ass every year.
No they kicked our ass for a few years stretch, which is the story of the series. Both teams always seem to win in long stretches.
Texas still owns a 57-39-5 record over them though
Dumbass. I'm not even a fan of either team and even I know Texas owns OU by almost 20 games in the overall series.
