Anyway, in that version the guy was supposedly jogging in Central Park wearing chainmail under his jogging suit because the weight would help him get into shape or something like that.  Anyway, the robber steps out with the knife and tries to rob him.  Things progress with the robber threatening to stab him if he doesn't turn over his money and the guy refusing.  The robber gets impatient and decides to follow through and stabs, but his knife hits the mail and the tip breaks off.  While the robber is staring at the broken tip of his knife, the SCA guy gets a big grin and screams "BLOOD FOR ODIN!" like a viking berserker causing the would-be robber to flee in terror.  Later on, the guy spots the robber as he's heading into a public restroom, so he follows him in.  He identifies which stall he's in, waits until he has had a chance to get "settled" and then goes into the next stall.  At that point, he starts beating his fists on the wall of the stall the guy is in and screaming "BLOOD FOR ODIN!" at the top of his lungs.  The robber then bolts from that restroom as fast as he can with his pants around his ankles screaming in terror.  I don't know if it's true, but that's how I heard it.Oh!  And in the version I heard the SCA guy was described as not being the most stable of individuals...</blockquote>
