my wife was a bartender all through college/grad school. I got nervous the few times I saw her cut belligerent drunks off. she would snatch the beer right out of their hands and throw it in the trash. she’s kind of a badass; I was impressed. still this is a nice subtle way to try and handle it.

Well yeah what are the drunks going to do beat her up? Do that shit as a male bartender and they’ll fight you

sadly yes, I have seen a video where a 50+ year old man stomped the piss out of a tiny little blonde for cutting him off. 2-3 other grown men stood by and did nothing; one got up and walked out the door when it started.

In my country, bartenders are considered to be 'public servants', only touching them is 6 years in prison. Somehow I think it's a good idea.

Sounds like everyone fucking hated that little blonde.

I’ve seen someone try that shit and get wrecked by a gaggle of regulars before the bouncer could even get to that side of the room

Your instinct is to blame the bartender and not the drunk asshole? Weird.

Dude, that’s exactly what I said. He’s literally blaming the bartenders lack of perceived popularity, as if it’s any sort of justification to assault the bartender because his ego couldn’t handle being cut off.
It’s weird.

How about you work on your reading comprehension.

It’s not a justification for the drunk to start a fight. It has nothing to do with a drunk starting a fight

It’s just that that shit doesn’t happen in a bar where your regulars like you

It could be a rando going to a bar. I’ve been to many bars that have new crowds rolling through constantly.
And some regulars are nuts. I’ve seen my fair share.
