Those nights are memorable because while you went out seeking entertainment and expecting to have a good time, there was no expectation that you were about to have a killer night that leaves you with a handful of really cool stories to share with your friends in the future.

That’s how I have come to think of event’s like this weekend’s return to the UFC APEX: sitting down to take in the action, I know I’m going to have a good time, get treated to some quality fights, and that there is a solid possibility that something unexpectedly awesome happens that leaves me and everyone else in the MMA bubble gobsmacked and gabbing about it on social media for the next couple days.
