Not my story...
...but one of my favourites.

Many years ago, some of my friends used to do the rubber-sword live action RP - dressing up as orcs and running about in the woods hitting each, that sort of thing.
One Sunday a group of four or five were driving back in a van from an event where they had been playing Knights Templar when, driving past a bus stop, they happened to see some bloke pushing a girl about.
I often wonder what went through the minds of the bloke and girl as a battered transit van pulled up next to them and a gang of knights in shining armour piled out. They restrained the bloke, hailed a cab and paid for it to take the girl home, and then gave the man a short homily: "Remember, son, hitting women is wrong - and we're watching", before leaping back into the van and screeching away.

I wish I'd been there.

It;s a shame
that they weren;t doing some kind of spanish inquisition thing:
'No one expects the Spanish Inquisition!'

Did they...
...whack him about with a foam-rubber sword shouting "Double Damage! Double Damage!" by any chance?

Say yes.

More likely "Quad through!" knowing those players.

At least this was post dye-weapons days.
