You Can't Fight A DMV-Nominated Samurai Champion In Lieu Of A Trial Anymore

A tipster has sent us a story nine years old but timeless. You might not know that in England, drivers must fill out a specific form in order to avoid paying taxes on an unused vehicle. You also might not know that in Medieval England, trials were often settled by the two parties engaging in single combat. 60-year-old Leon Humphreys knew only one of these things. Guess which one.



£300 might seem like a hefty sum compared to the initial £25 fine for failing to file the correct form, but Humphreys insists that the fight would've been "to the death," so it probably worked out. (H/T L-Crime)
