Old Fart Blowing Big Farts

A social club in England has banned a 77-year-old man from breaking wind while indoors, according to a BBC report.

Maurice Fox received a letter from Kirkham Street Sports and Social Club in Paignton (Devon) telling him that his actions "disgusted" members. Fox, a club regular for 20 years, said: "I am happy to oblige them, there is no problem. I do get a bit windy - I am an old fart now." He said he now has to leave the club about three times a night.

In its letter to the retired bus driver, the club said: "After several complaints regarding your continual breaking of wind (farting) while in the club, would you please consider that your actions are considered disgusting to fellow members and visitors. You sit close to the front door, so would you please go outside when required. So please take heed of this request."

Fox also said he spends two days a week at the nearby Palace Place club, but said he had no complaints about flatulence there.
