stabbed at a kiddush!

As if we don't have enough to fight about, in a Melbourne, Australia shul two people got into a fight at the kiddush over a piece of herring. It led to one stabbing the other, and then running away.

It must have been pretty amazing herring to be worth stabbing someone over!

Maybe he was just trying to pick up another piece of herring with his toothpick and accidentally stabbed the guy next to him who was also reaching for it?

not over a bowl of cholent, not over a shot of good whisky, not even over a scoop of chopped liver. Herring!

The OU is right - kiddush clubs are dangerous places!

  1. It happened before the war, in Eastern Europe. The hosts and all the guests were yekkes, except for one lonely hasid. The food ran out, and everyone stood around the table eyeing the last piece of herring. All of a sudden, the lights went out. A cry pierced the darkness! When the lights came back on, there was the hasid, hand on the herring, with 20 forks impaled in the back of his hand!
