If your still young and aren't old enough to hit em' up at clubs, then good places to battle would be the mall, school cafeteria, dances, or anywhere where there are a lot of people. If crowds aren't your thing, you could always battle in the bathroom or somewhere more private. I would prefer to battle in front of a medium sized crowd (that ussually grows)in a public place. There'd be more ohh's and ahh's that way.
