Going forward it's important to remember that a 60+ y/o men sitting in a bar on a Saturday afternoon is either a loser, a drunk, or perhaps both.
Honestly I would not have even answered to him. The dude wants to get a rise out of you...don't give him the pleasure.
"Oh yeah! Well I slept with your wife!"
Nothing as direct as what you experienced, but snide little remarks have often come my way.
I ask the person A) where'd you get your misinformation?, B) do you have a reading comprehension problem? C) Would you like me to compile the facts and present them to you?
Usually, by question 3's finish, it is quiet.
Depending on who it is -- sometimes people I know -- I'll throw in a "you're a dumbass" to top it off.

One could just start asking simple questions about the whole Sandusky situation to demonstrate their level of ignorance with the situation.
Example: I have no problems showering at Penn State. Why do you ask?
Chances are they'll fumble around and utter something utterly ridiculous and, as Mark Twain said, will clearly show themselves to be the fool by opening their mouth

Wow, can't believe he's still around. Had a class he taught back around 79. He's been there a while
He might have taken a fork lift and put the guy up on one of the higher racks.
You should have asked the guy if his mother drank at Temple.
You could have said, “Actually, neither. Personally, I’d rather take a sh*t in the stands at a Pitt game, because I doubt anyone would be there to notice...”
That was the norm when I was young. Sitting at a bar when you're retired at any time after the bar opens.... Nothing wrong with it. I can't tell you how many older guys I've seen at the club house bar at noon...
Should have just leaned in, kissed him on the forhead and asked if he wanted to join you for a shower to to find out, now that would have been disturbing.
For the first time in a very long time I had someone give me some crap about Penn State on Saturday night.
Was at a place in NJ for a 50th birthday celebration. A good band was playing and the place was packed. Our group became friendly with a group of about 20 at a long table next to ours. Turns out they were all 30-something lawyers from Manhattan. I was speaking to thin one young female attorney when she told me she did her undergrad at Wisconsin. I said something like “Go Big Ten....I went to Penn State”. She told me she hated Penn State, went on a JoePa rant, told me she knows lots of Penn Staters and that we just don’t get it.
I smiled and told her that I understood the way she felt but that there is a lot about what happened that she might not be aware, and that something like this could happen anywhere, even Wisconsin. She then got really pissed off and told me that no way it could happen there because folks in Wisconsin are much more open and honest than people from Pennsylvania.
I stood there a little dumbfounded over what she just said to me. I said “OK....I think you need another glass of wine”. At the end of the night I saw her as we were leaving and I tapped her shoulder and said “Go Badgers”. She said to me “Go Badgers but not Penn State”.

When you generalize about a whole state, you’ve lost the argument.
You should have said,”yeah it was nice the Badgers were our bitches in the Big10 Championship game two years ago. That slapping sound you heard was your Badger asses getting beat”.
the title to this thread should say disturbing moment not "distributing" or did someone already point that out
My answer would have been a shower at Penn State and wish you'd be in there with me...
Good for you. Agree with your approach. Anyone who thinks it's funny is a trash bag of the highest order.
Your reply should have been:
1 To be fruitful and multiply.
2 Don't look now, but there's one man too many in this room, and I think it's you.
3 You've got the brain of a four-year old boy, and I bet he was glad to get rid of it.
4 Your parents married because they wanted children. Imagine their disappointment when you arrived.

The last time I went to Wisconsin was to visit a friend who's wife was going to UW. We stopped at a yard sale next to the stadium.. He got out to look, I stayed in the car. I glanced to my right and there was a girl, about 250-300 lbs. Standing butt ass naked in her houses doorway just checking out the people at the yard sale. I guess that's normal around there.
Years ago, I worked in a town in NEPA that was by and large a majority Polish ethnicity. I would see a lot of males who I would consider to be in "buff" shape walking around with female partners who to call them obese would be understating the fact. The manager who I worked with, who was Polish and one day I asked "Why do the men in this town seem attracted to grossly overweight women when they obviously could do much better"? His reply: "Some men like to have something to hold onto when they're making out with their woman".
