    I'll do it the way I want!"

    Around the turn of the century, the master blacksmith Sebastian Schubert, who lived in Pettstadt, is said to have once not complied with the request of a police patrol (to leave the pub at a late hour), but instead replied:

    I'll do it the way I want!"

    He found a lenient judge in the Royal Bavarian District Court in Bamberg: The lawyer could not see any offensive or rebellious behavior and acquitted the defendant.

    Around 100 years ago, the Pettstadt blacksmith was asked by the village policeman to leave a Pettstadt tavern late at night. "I'll do it like I mooch," was his reply. Accused before the royal Bavarian district court in Bamberg, he was acquitted. The judge saw no offense.

    "Do it like the Pettstadt blacksmith" has since become a well-known saying in the region when someone wants to get their way. A notice board and a memorial commemorate this.
