    Well, a few hours before dawn on a Saturday morning - yes, it's highly likely.

    Drunk as a skunk with equally drunken mates taking on a gang of local peasants in the early hours of the morning?

    It ain’t Kansas, Dorothy.

    This is a medieval third world shithole populated by heathen savages scarcely two swings out of the jungle.

    Caveat emptor.
