Is starting a fight club at your catholic highschool illegal? I want to start one but I think I will get arrested or expelled or something. I saw the movie and it seems like a great stress reliever.
Haha, I've always kind of wanted to be in a fight club. I guess it'd be okay as long as you stayed off school property at all times when participating in the fight club. Be careful?
Even if it's not on school property and it's not during school hours I still think that it would still somehow be illegal. What if somebody gets seriously injured? Who is going to be held accountable?

Is your name Evan? I know a guy who's doing this exact thing.
I wonder if two people willingly engaging in a physical fight is illegal. o.O Isn't it like wrestling or boxing? Just... in a dis-used warehouse...DigitalExile
It is illegal. It's why people get arrested for fighting in the streets. At least, I think that's why.
You would get kicked out, yes. Do it away from school if you want.Bloodbath_87
I just want to point out that even if it is not done on school grounds, you can still be suspended or even expelled from school. If you use the school system as a way to find new members, for example, you can be expelled. We had this happen in my elementary school once. Two kids were going to fight after school, and they got a small group of about 40 kids to follow them to an alley that was about 6 blocks away from school grounds. Some idiot recorded the fight and the school officials got a hold of the footage. Couple of days later, the kids are suspended.

It's ok, everyone goes through this phase after they see the movie for the first time.
:lol: Indeed! I know I certainly did! Well so I guess we established that it's illegal on school grounds... so the question is, is it illegal outside of school (for example, someone mentioned a park)?
Chuck Palahniuk, author of the cult 1996 novel Fight Club that was the basis for the 1999 movie, declined an interview request but said, "God bless these kids. I hope they're having a great time. I don't think they'd be doing it if they weren't having a great time."
meh, u don't want to do that. back in high school kids use to box. i think only once something happened that the police had to come, but nothing to serious.
If you want to relieve stress take up a real sport like League or Lawn Bowls or something. Fighting is just stupid and its not as glorified as it is in the movies - you will get hurt. Grow up Brad!
Ah, and they are worried about violent video games warping kids minds? The movie was rated R and intended for mature audiences...which means its not intended for easily influenced brain dead high school students who want to copy "cool things" they see in movies.
Depends where you do it..... In a public place it would be illegal. In a private residence it would depend on the circumstances and ages of the participants.
Most schools have their teacher and staff required by law to report a student if they have bruises and cuts anywhere visible. It's a way to make sure the students are safe, and if you don't tell them something at least convincing, they'll start an investigation, probably by starting with parents. So if I were you, I'd get sparring gear, and something to protect your teeth.
