Bet he didn't see that shit coming

(CNN) A police officer has been killed by a rooster while attempting to break up an illegal cockfight in the Philippines, authorities have said. Police in the Northern Samar province said Lieutenant Christian Bolok was struck by the rooster's gaff -- a metal blade attached to the bird for a fight.

I've still got a scar on my leg where my Uncle Pete's prize bird Topper nailed me when I walked too close to where he was staked out, and that was from his natural spurs. Yup, it made such an impression on me that I can still remember that damned bird's name after 50 years.
What really pissed me off was the way Pete came running out of the house - not to make sure I was all right but to make sure Topper wasn't hurt when I kicked that motherfucker.
