Was it a hilarious throwaway line that angry Blaine tossed out to be snarky, or was it a slip of the tongue and him accidentally revealing the dark underbelly of Dalton Academy?

grrrr

If you have reasons why you think it's real or fake feel free to list them in! Or any Dalton Fight Club scenarios, or how it was first started, or if Kurt's ever been?

Come on guys!! The Animal warehouse! It's clearly for The Fight Club!

[KDlaxgoalie]

I said real because... it's Glee, it can be as crack-tastic as it wants. Also becasue then it helps make badboy!Blaine semi-cannon, lol- in that sense it's almost like a wave to the fandom, an inside joke with certain cliques of Klainers.

My thoughts on the how/why? Dalton, like any private school, probably has it's share of rich kids. In the fake world of TV, books, and movies (and possibly in real life) a lot of rich kids get Mr.Chang-esq pressure on them (go to this school, major in this, and then do this with your life or I will stop speaking to you and maybe even disown you) and it tends to make the kids lash out and rebell (example: Logan Huntzberger and Co. from Gilmore Girls). But at Dalton they're all dapper!dans (except when they're being sleezy Seb!whores) and have no way to really let out all the pent up anger over their parental issues. In comes Blaine, a guy who's got daddy issues of his own (rebuild a car togther to try and make him straight) and anger over being bullied and has taken up boxing and maybe isn't the dapper!dan we all still percieve him as and he, inspired by a movie (or maybe tales of other fight clubs in the state- i.e. Lima) decides, "Let's take out all our anger on eachother by stating a fight club!" And so they did.

I believe that Kurt has never been and may even be oblivious to the existance of such a club.

[CelestialMystic]

I must believe.

[Perfection]

Assuming it's real, do you think they'd do any damage, like bruises and split lips and stuff? I love the movie Fight Club, but I can't really grasp the joy of inflicting physical damage and pain or being in pain. I hope they didn't go that far. Maybe it was a dapper fight club, where they would just discuss techniques and practice them and wear protective gear and so on. What do you, guys, think?

Why would Blaine found a fight club, anyway? This guy is such an enigma.

[Korydwen]

I think it was ironic. Blaine kind of getting back for all the Dalton crap Finn lashed on him from the beginning.

Or maybe Dalton has a boxing club and they nicknamed it like that. I really don't think it's real, even if Glee is cracky.

They hold it in the Room of Requirement. And Dobby heals all of their injuries so they'll still look spiffy fresh in their robes blazers.

I love everything that is this post.

I'm thinking it was a made-up angry quip that came from Kurt and Blaine having a run-in with Sebastian at the Lima Bean and recently having a movie date night that included some of Brad Pitt's more colourful films.

Though there are some pretty wicked fanart pieces showing up that almost makes me wish that it real! lmao

[Peachouille]

Oh this fight club is giving us gold!









Told you about the warehouse!

And :

Does anyone remember when Puck mentioned his Fight Club back in season 1?

I forgot which episode, but holy shit do I have a new head canon:
Say that Puck has a Fight Club. And Blaine started the one at Dalton. Say that, in the wonderful world of Fight Clubs, they both knew who each other was before Kurt ever went to Dalton, but couldn’t say anything because then they would have to admit to Fight Club, which hello you can’t talk about.
So…Puck knew who Blaine was before Kurt.
Which is why he told Kurt to go “visit the Garglers.”

EPIC PUCK POST OF EPICNESS

Everything it says on the tin. And more.



Mental note: get more Puck gifs...

Oh my goodness the quality comics and art coming from this one line! LMAO

There's also a part two... where Sebastian doesn't quite understand insults. Not for kids.

Seriously can we hire this person to make a Dalton Warblers webshow ?

[angel]

I like to think there is a dalton fight club. After all he took up boxing so mayb there is such club but not actually fighting has happened they join there to box not to fight to let off steam. So like what happens in fight club stays in the club. Lol

But then again If he said that in the heat of the moment to scare finn, well it was a classic line , even though I have not watch the movie hahaha

[tragicgirl]

He said it, so I reckon it is true.
Great idea.

[Courfeyrac]

iCan't.

I voted yes, because it'd be pretty cool.

I suppose he could have embellished a boxing club, but still. I believe. Although I'm pretty sure they just sit around arguing, as others have said...

[Aziraphale]

The Dalton Fight club usually consists of about six hours of the warblers arguing over when Blaine was the most awesome.

Sounds legit.

[FriendlyFangirl88]

In discussing this scene/line in another thread, somebody pointed out that Blaine's form was off. His guard was too low for anyone with real training in boxing, especially someone who would likely be at a height disadvantage to most of his opponents. They intended this as an arguement that the line was a throw-away joke, I took it to be exactly the opposite. Because it answers the other big logic issue with there being a Dalton Fight Club. That is the secrecy. How did they deal with the cuts and bruses that would come with something like a Fight Club at a school that cracks down on bullying and, presumablly, violence, as hard as Dalton?

My headcanon is that, shortly after transfering to Dalton, Blaine got angry at someone. Angry like he got at Sam. They were alone, maybe with just a couple other guys. But instead of being broken up, the fight escelated. They beat each other up and the fight saps up the bitterness between them and suddenly Blaine's friends with this person. Though they both have to come up with covers for the nasty bruses and cuts. So when the cycle of anger starts over again with someone close to them, Blaine decides that what Dalton needs is a fight club, to deal with the pressure and anger and all of the other things. Except when it comes down to it, they can't excuse regular appearences of brusing and cuts...so in order to protect the members of the unoffical club Blaine founded, he tacked on an extra rule. No hitting in the face. All damage was done to places that would be covered by their uniforms. Thus, Fight Club at Dalton can work and Blaine's low guard is explained.

I don't think we should read too much into that. It's not like they would have made Darren train to be able to box correctly for a 30 seconds scene that most of the audience wouldn't have seen anything wrong with.

[Myra]

haha OF course its real!
