* Somewhat confirmed in the 2019 revival. In place of the fight, Jud peacefully walks into the wedding. He hands Curly a cardboard box with a gun inside as a gift. Jud then takes a couple steps back and waits. After a moment, Curly calmly shoots Jud. Therefore, while Jud didn’t actually carry out the act himself, his actions were suicidal.

* Even the 2011 recreation of the original Broadway production at UNCSA suggests this was also something the original creators had in mind: Jud is portrayed surprisingly sympathetically for the OG version of the show and given the presence of the whole town when he dies it seems likely he knew he was not fated to make it out of the fight alive.

Well, there was that whole "Pore Jud is Daid" song, and he was starting to seem pretty convinced that everyone would like him after he died. Since Laurey was married to Curly, maybe Jud thought he didn't have anything left to live for. Maybe he wanted to frame Curly for it as a final parting act of spite, or maybe it was just a spur of the moment decision in the middle of their fight.

[[{{Carrie}} He is an unpopular pariah in town who nobody likes. One of the prettiest and most beloved people in town goes with him suddenly to the local dance, but on the night where it seems everything is going to turn good for his life, he's made a fool of in front of all his peers, ultimately driving him to a murderous rampage leading to his demise. ]] Unfortunately he never had psychic powers, and never got his divine justice, like his future descendant will.
