Definitely not a liberal. He would have been crying on the floor and begging for someone to call the police.

He didn't serve anyone.
I'm still waiting for my drink.

WhiteGuy2   July 24th, 2010 - 11:53 am

Kudos to the bar tender, but what the hell is wrong with people these days. Seems as though good decent people are out numbered 10 to 1 by flaming jerk-offs. It's like night of the living dead all over the damn place.

CBrooks1976   July 24th, 2010 - 7:02 pm

I'm with holding judgment until we know what brand beer he saved.

xmlrider   July 24th, 2010 - 7:12 pm

Wait a sec… the title reads "still serves customers.."?? Come on, Breitbart…

Father Campbell   July 24th, 2010 - 8:08 pm

Hmm, one of those attackers is Wasilla_Grizzly, a commenter on here with -180 points. Guess we won't be seeing him again. Take KRAV MAGA and you too will be able to fend off 4 attackers also.

Father Campbell   July 24th, 2010 - 8:14 pm

I LOVE IT, at 1:16 the Geraldine Garafalo look alike getS her face smashed into the bar!!! ROFLMAO!

standard952   July 24th, 2010 - 8:45 pm

Eric holder will have the attackers released shortly based on the fact that society has not properly taken care of their needs and desires.

DefunctDaRegime   July 24th, 2010 - 9:05 pm

Yeah, I saw this on that cable show: "When Democrats Attack".

TJL   July 24th, 2010 - 9:21 pm

Now that's a bartender.

If it was Pabst, he'll be my write in vote.

iconoclastKM   July 24th, 2010 - 6:04 pm

The bartender has to be a conservative; because liberals don't have stones like that!

…and not wanting to waste good beer.

He'll lock the door next shift, I'll bet.

iconoclastKM   July 25th, 2010 - 1:09 am

…a bit nit picky, ain't ya?

iconoclastKM   July 24th, 2010 - 6:20 pm

…and Obama, who said he doesn't know the whole story, still said he thinks the bartender and white police officers acted "stupidly" for not giving the four another "last call" opportunity, and then serve it to them "on the house".

He also said something about some kind of "summit' or something, I think.

JeffMcB   July 25th, 2010 - 4:58 am

This bartender is like John Wayne toilet paper. True grit. Strongest sandpaper and doesnt take sh*t off of anybody. He will probably get sued by the idiots he beat the snot out of.

danielj1t   July 25th, 2010 - 6:04 am

give that man a raise!

claspur   July 25th, 2010 - 1:56 pm

Ditto, Danielj !!! lmao

The guy turning off the tap is what got me laughing my azz off. Unreal!!! ?

I actually sent this link to my son. Who loves doing Wing Chun. And, I asked him to comment. He replied. And, I've copied his response, below.
Being in a small space definitely helps. It turns out most people generate their power using large movements, like rotating their hips for extra power or stepping in to take a powerful punch. Also, many fighters try to pull someone down to the floor, but the bartender was able to use the handles on in the bar to keep himself off the ground. (This is important – ground fighting is dirty).

Additionally, the close-quarters made it harder for the 4 people to truly gang up on him. If he was out in the main area, he would have been almost certainly been brought down the ground, the big guy hitting his face while everyone else kicked and smashed at his body, groin, and fingers.

The bartender's two biggest disadvantages: 1) He didn't pay attention to his surroundings and got jumped on. (Furthermore, he should only have been counting his money when the door was already locked) 2) He had a guy smacking him with a pool-cue. (Luckily, the guy wasn't swinging with full power for, presumably, fear of hitting his own friends.)

The bartender's biggest advantage: He didn't have to win – he just had to hit a single button. Note that it took him 7 minutes to do this, which really did mean that he was overwhelmed, and if he didn't have that button he'd be screwed.

Of course, I loved that he turned the beer spigot off in the middle of the fight. That meant he was staying relatively relaxed.

P.S. The bartender's fight was in many ways very real and very sloppy. But, if you're talking about movie-like scenarios:

If I was the bartender… Wing Chun is actually designed for close-quarter combat, so this situation would actually be relatively ideal. We can generate power with absolutely no distance at all. If I was in the bartender's situation, I hope I would have been able to break or sprain the woman's leg and shove her away, then turn to face the big guy, and with a bottle or glass strike him in the face several times. I would have tried to knee him in the groin for good measure. Then, I would have hit the button and tried to find something to hold to defend against the guy with the pool cue, yelling, "I've pressed an alarm and the police are on their way!"

If I were the robbers… I would have had two people step in and attack the bartender, a third grab the money and run, and a fourth try to signal and get the first two out of there after the money was safely absconded with. The fact that all four hung around uselessly meant they were probably drunk or not really sure if they were in on stealing the money. Perhaps it was a case where the girlfriend started something and everyone else just tried to keep up.

He shut off the tap, where does one find an employee like this?
