Default Was Vinny ever in a fight? I know Epstein and Arnold was

I just started following WBK on TV LAND and i have yet to see Vinny in a fight. He was considered the coolest Sweathogg but I saw a episode last night when Arnold was fighting Carvelli and since Vinny was the leader of the Sweathoggs he never stepped in to help after Arnold was knocked out. So if someone has seen a episode with Vinny being in a fight let me know.

I don't think he actually did get into a fight. He and the gang almost fought Carvelli and his thugs (before Murray) Until Kotter and Woodman stepped in and scared off Carvelli. He got slapped by the gym teacher once, but I don't know if that was considered a fight.

Well why was Vinnie considered to be so cool since he was never in a fight?

I guess cause he acted tough and was popular with girls. That's my theory.

I haven't seen Vinny with a girl yet, TV LAND has only showed the first season so far. And so far-i seen him with no girls

I saw that episode last night when Vinny was slapped by the gym teacher on TV LAND but i thought they were going to show that. So i was looking forward to seeing this episode and I don't even see Vinny get slapped-what a waste of my time.

Yeah, don't you hate when you're looking forward to seeing an episode and they skip it. I don't blame you for being annoyed.

I hate when they go back to the beginning.

I saw the episode, but they didn't show Vinny getting slapped they just said that he did. What a horrible episode.

I think he was cool just cause he...was. This is Bar-bar-bar-bar-bar-barino we're talking about. He has the messed up but beautiful italian hair style. He's a catholic degenerate. He has girls to spare. If not on the show, fan girls at least! He has great catch phrases. He has a frickin leather jacket, man. He doesn't NEED to fight to be cool. Besides, there's a certain underlying thing here: Vinnie's the Heart-Throb, Arnold's the Lovable Silly one, Epstein's the Tough Puerto Rican, and Freddie's the Smooth Ladies Man. These things are set up already. We know em. From the first time he tells Horshack to speak, you know he's just ruddy cool. In the words of Dr Evil, he has a certain something the French call...I-don't-know-what. Why do we love the Vinnie? Quoth the Applejacks: We Just Do.
