Sure sounds like a good idea – getting together with your brother-in-law to watch the big fight. From the idea stage to the actual event, things went downhill, as you’ll see from this entry in The Colorado Springs Police Department Blotter:
Incident Date: September 15, 2013
Time:1:25:00 AM
Division: Stetson Hills — Shift I
Title: Assault
Location:7865 Chancellor Drive
Officers were dispatched to the above address re. a disturbance. Upon arrival officers learned that after watching a championship boxing match on TV, two intoxicated males engaged in an arguement and one intentionally stabbed his brother-inlaw in his ear with knife.

Ouch!
