OH wow, my highschool wrestling coach was a nerd and I never knew it. We did murderball everyonce in a while, two teams like dodgeball but we used deflated volleyballs. Once knocked out you had to go onto the wall, always one part touching the wall was the only rule. Aka once you were out you could fight everyone who got close, other out people. It was pure violence and getting "out" was often done on purpose for our best fighters.

I would love for his Stainless Steel Rat to be made into a movie or TV series.

It appeared in the comic 2000 AD some time back in the early 80s.

I love his novel Bill, the Galactic Hero. Terry Pratchett once called it the funniest sci fi novel ever written.
