i was wanting to relate alittle incident that happened to me on sunday and get everyones thoughts on it. i was attending a big ride here in st.louis and while riding in they were directing people where to park. they were sending people out into a field. now this place has huge paved parking too, but i understand with the crowd they have coming they must get everyone in tight. i pulled up and explained to the guy i need to stay on the pavement as i'm an above the knee amputee. i can't walk on uneven surfaces very well at all. he starts yelling and MF-ing me out of no where. started telling me you'll park where i tell you MF-ER. lots of witness's to it too. i tired to explain and even showed him my leg and he just continued to MF me. finally someone else came over and directed me to a parking spot on the paved area. the thing is people end up parking in that spot anyway. this was a Thunder Alley Production Event.
i witnessed others having problems too. the more i thought about this , the more pissed off i've become. if i was younger we would have be rolling ( and maybe have both legs ) what would you have done ?

I would have moved along and parked where I wanted. If he had started my way he would understand that I was armed and my phone would be dialing 911. F<>k him and the horse he rode in on.

i tried moving along, but he stood over my front fender and wasn't letting me by. thinking back i could have called the cops, but that's not my style. they had better be careful as they are setting themsleves up for a law suite pulling **** like this. again this isn't my style. guy needs a good *** beating though.

I assume this was the Rat Run.
Had I seen this happening (I was there), I'd have jumped in front of that guy and MF'ed him right back for you. I'm not sure it would have helped, but it would have PISSED ME OFF.
Sounds like you handled it the best way possible, but sometimes a douche is just a douche.
