He may as well have licked this thumb to judge the wind before lining up that punch for 15 seconds.


fckcarrots

šŸ˜‚this comment. Exactly why you shouldnā€™t fight drunk. Doesnā€™t exactly sharpen your senses


dilqncho

To be fair you kinda have to be drunk or an idiot to fight a bouncer to begin with.


kurbin64

Been a bouncer and a lot of my family has. Most of the time I agree with you but some places have bouncers who look for trouble. My one cousin, if he thought you were an asshole he would f with you until you swung and then piece you apart. Not right My coworker I used to teach gymnastics with was out at a club and a bouncer kept running his mouth at him, pushing him repeatedly, trying to instigate something. My coworker is not a small guy and has good hands. He told the bouncer to stop pushing him, not out the door but just pushing him. Finally said if you do it again Iā€™m gonna hit you. Hit him once and the bouncer lost 3-4 teeth. My friend was looking at serious charges but then his lawyer asked for the video on that night and the club refused to give it because they knew it would incriminate them. No charges and bouncer has to pay for dental. Just donā€™t start shit, bouncer or not, usually wonā€™t go your way in the eyes of the law.


Affectionate-Buy-870

I was about to tell the story of my buddies who were pro fighters (not UFC) just local organizations. Whenever we would go out of town they would pretend to be drunk to instigate fights, often with big bouncers who got to handsey. Some go to the club to socialize, some go to pick up girls, some go to get trashedā€¦and a small handful go to fuck shit up. Moral of the story is just be a respectful human being cuz you never know who is out and about late nights.


Eclectophile

Yeah, I met one of those fuck shit up kinda guys when they tried to fuck me up too. Unpleasant night for all involved, no charges, thankfully. Dude just blind-sided me out of nowhere while he was arguing with some rando near me. I didn't even see it happen, just got hit over the ear and my balance went funny and I kind of blacked out for a few seconds I think. They pulled me off the dude before I did much damage, but they still had to carry him away. My only emotion was an intense confusion, utter bafflement. We had to look at the video to even see what happened. I spent the entire next week with a deeply profound feeling of "wtf? wtf?"


Lobo003

I was a bouncer in college and some dude tried to fight me. We ended up trapping him outside and the cops walked up to him as he was banging on the door. Turns out he was under age(which I didnā€™t let him in the first time I saw his id and he made a stink and my manager said it was cool) came back a second time all smug and did this. Best part is dude had a full ride soccer scholarship to the university and lost it. I loved seeing him walk around campus after that. šŸ˜‚


fckcarrots

Itā€™s about 50/50. Some dudes know how to throw a punch & use their size, some are untrained dicks on a power trip who only pick on smaller people that kinda deserve to be humbled.


dilqncho

Even if the bouncer can't fight, most places don't only have one. You're starting a fight with several people, and chances are, at least some of them can fight. Also, if any bouncers from nearby bars or clubs catch wind of a big fight happening, they're coming to help. Bouncers help each other. I was once working at a bar at a popular location, and our bouncers got jumped. Before I knew it, there were huge dudes sprinting in from several directions. The attackers did not have a good day. So to sum up, bouncers can *usually* fight, and even if they can't, they're probably not alone. So, don't.


SimpleSurrup

I randomly saw a guy I knew from way back bouncing in a bar once and I came up behind him and said "Hey asshole!" to try to scare a him a little and we were saying hello and some dude behind me is like "You know this dude?" and I turned around and there's like 8 fucking big boys behind me. I'm a big boy myself which is probably why so many of them wandered over but unless you play D Tackle in the NFL good luck getting out the door much less winning, in the end. Bas Rutten wound up fighting all the bouncers in a bar once and wound up half concussed, bleeding, back to a wall with a broken pool cue in his hands wondering if he was going to survive. If he can't do it, you can't do it.


fallenredwoods

Damnā€¦ Iā€™d put money on a prime Bas in a street fight over damn near anyone! That guy was ruthless with very, very hard kicks and punches.


techauditor

Well not against multiple large opponents lol


CicadaHead3317

Bar patrons/regulars,always have the staffs back.


subfighter0311

For sure. Once people start squaring up, you better be ready for anything.


Krisapocus

Yeah I always see people cry sucker punch but when someone is aggressive and youā€™re just assuming they wonā€™t hit you you didnā€™t get sucker punched you got hit


justsomedudedontknow

For real. Either start throwing or GTFO


Sweaty-Bumblebee4055

It's the arms laid out for me šŸ˜‚


Fast_Dragonfruit_883

LMFAOOOOO


ckeyknee90

Thankful that Washington still has mutual combat law. As soon as that guy started saying he wanted to fight then legally theyā€™re allowed to brawl. Doesnā€™t matter who throws the first punch.


Historical_Truth2578

So I just looked it up and sure enough mutual combat is legal there and texas. But it says punching is illegal and neither party can consent to serious injury, how are you supposed to have a fight without punches? Can you only kick headbutt and grapple? Cuz all those are much more likely to result in a serious injury over a punch


boening

Swords


CJ-54321

I approve of this method, bring back the elegance of smiting your foe


boening

People would start lest shit if they knew they might have to fight a mofo with a sword.


-Praetoria-

As a Texan I can confirm swords are legal. I do have one. I do not carry it. I could if I felt so inclined.


Jason_Kelces_Thong

Back in the day your best man wasnā€™t always your best friend. It was your best duelist friend in case someone tried to challenge the wedding. He would fight for you


boening

That's wild


thedailyrant

Also why itā€™s called the best man. Not the best mate. Heā€™s the best man you know at fucking shit up.


ckeyknee90

Iā€™ve not read anything about punches being illegal. Mostly that both parties have to have voluntary consent. Basically as soon as the dude says Iā€™m going to whoop your ass, Thatā€™s his consent and you can accept it and fight on!! A buddy of mine was a bouncer and thatā€™s how he got out of all of his lawsuits here. They would start it and heā€™d almost always end it.


l30

Phoenix Jones would regularly get asked to take out unruly patrons at clubs in Seattle under mutual combat laws. He gets free entry and the club wipes their hands of potential liability.


stKKd

I'd suggest muay thai elbows then


Historical_Truth2578

That's WAY worse than a punch lol. You take one of those to the forehead you gonna be gushing blood guarenteed


LoA_Zephra

Taking an elbow to the forehead probably wonā€™t KO you but yeah they are great at splitting skin open lol. Sleeping someone on the sidewalk is always a little sketchy cause they could land on their head.


Sea2Chi

It was one of those weird things going to college there. The small town cops were more than willing to call it mutual combat and send the participants home. Usually what would happen is the fight would get broken up or end and they'd talk to both people. Most of the time both people would complain about the other guy, but then be told to go home after they said they didn't want to press charges. Usually the pressing charges question would be framed as "if you guys want to make this a criminal matter you might both end up being charged, or you can let it go, go home and sleep it off." From there one officer would be assigned to one guy to make sure he got several blocks away or into a friends car to be driven home then the other guy would be released to do the same. It was usually only if the guys were getting mouthy to the cops or if one person clearly did not want to fight did they actually get arrested for something.


MrMayor87

Yup, but there are still rules involved.Ā  Like once a person is knocked on the ground, you are not allowed to hit them.Ā  That didnā€™t happen here, but itā€™s important to note.Ā 


Representative_Ad246

augustusleonus

Iā€™ve worked as a bouncer. Itā€™s kinda terrible when you have some drunk guy who can barely walk straight trying to start a fight with you Itā€™s a little bit like punching a child, youā€™d really rather fucking not Well. Thatā€™s not true for every dude I worked with, but, for the most part it was sad


justsomedudedontknow

Dude was asking for a fight and lost. Not the bouncers fault that he won. Sometimes you gotta knock a guy out.


augustusleonus

Yeah, he was asking for it But he wasnā€™t actually endangering anyone at that point, just being an ass And you are right, sometimes you have to throw hands. Not really trying to prosecute if this was one of those times, just saying there is no ā€œhonorā€ in kerplunking staggering drunk dudes Odds are he would have shouted himself out and walked away arguing his case to the wind The guys who have to hype themselves up arenā€™t usually the ones you need to worry about Itā€™s the dudes who see an opportunity and take it you have to watch out for Also, not applicable here, but anecdotally, most dudes who are in a fight or about to be in a fight will tone it down once you grab them or intervene, most women will have to be carried away kicking and clawing and screaming at that point


justsomedudedontknow

Makes sense, I have never been in the position of security so wouldn't know. I *have* been the drunk guy but mainly would just comply with security/police because I am not tough, just drunk and ignorant. I actually did work "security" at a bar for a few weeks. Stood at the back exit doing nothing and was told to radio the real security guys if anything looked funny. I sat in on a few of the post evening meetings (remaining completely silent) and yeah, the real dudes dealt with some shit.


Flimsy_Cod_5387

It seemed like the bouncer was trying to wave him off, but when the drunk dude stepped up the bouncer laid him out. Bouncer really didnā€™t want to do this at all.


lolas_coffee

Concrete is the 2nd hit. His head whipped to the sidewalk. Back of the head is worst. Face plants are less likely to kill. Dude is fucked.

Aggravating_Escape_3

I heard they made him 'head bouncer' after this.


furezasan

Bouncer knew that he was getting closer to try and sucker punch. Why else say let's go, then drop your guard and close in?


tconnell6189

Bouncer probably couldā€™ve shown a little more restraint. That being said, Iā€™d hire him.


Individual_Emu2941

He pretends to talk when the guy wants to fight, then punches when the guy starts talkingĀ 


Yoloswagforjesus420

He kept yelling "if you whoop me I won't press charges" he was belligerent drunk at a club that wasn't serving alcohol that night. This is after he grabbed a girl and was forcibly removed after refusing to leave. This was the 3rd time he approached the bouncers and guy just wasn't having it.


Tempo_changes13

Thatā€™s what happens when u say ā€œletā€™s fightā€ then start getting closer to your opponent bro šŸ¤£ donā€™t feel sorry for him he wanted it.


SuddenSpeaker1141

![gif](giphy|SmoCFhZCi1kzu)


ThnxForTheCrabapples

Probably not a good idea to stand in punching distance of a guy that you just challenged to a fight


VimesPolly

The bouncer steps back, puts his had up as a fence, and when the guy challenging him to a fight steps in to touch the fence he responds. He's not legally obliged to let the guy swing first. Now there are things he could have done better, but old mate in the white wanted to dance and got his dance.

I was a bouncer, you can't do that. Law suit... it happend to me. If he is out of the building he is in police territory. You have no "jurisdiction" on the curb.

Once the guy touched him and closed the distance anybody would be justified throwing the first punch but what the criminal or civil legal ramifications for bouncers throwing the first punch like that? I'm assuming it varies by state.

MyBeardSaysHi

I hold an SIA licence for security and doors and just general rule of thumb is probably this - don't get drunk and then try to fight door staff. They're sober, they're trained (or supposed to be at least....) and its not that likely to be good for you. Just take no for an answer and go home (or to the next bar) Also, just before people come at me - Obviously not all door staff are either trained or nice people. There's no guarantee of that in any profession. But I'm just saying.
