My first time rolling i tapped due to, sweaty gut to the face. Dude had 30 pounds on me and I can still taste the sweat. He basically had me in Judo side control and smothered me with his happy trail. I'll never forget it lol.

First time I rolled it was with a guy about 20 pounds heavier than me and I got my ass handed to me badly,but two things happened,first it gave me the motivation to want to train more and become better than the other guy.Second,I learned that it doesn't matter how many instructional vids you watch or study it doesn't mean shit unless you actually roll with someone or actually practice the techniques.
First time I rolled was at a Joe Moreira school. They all took turns smashing the hell out of me. I rolled with everybody in the school, and lost to everybody. Had to go to the bathroom and cry, it was so humiliating. At that time I said to myself "I can leave now knowing I can't fight, or stay and learn everything I can." Well here I am.
the first time I rolled was before I even knew what jiu jitsu was... I had never watched UFC... didn't know jack... I was going to learn some "karate" for fun... so i go to the class and the dude drops to the mats spreads his legs and says "come here".... I thought... "shit, find an exit... I'm about to get raped"
