: confused: I had an incident the other evening with a drunken bartender. We were invited to this bar with friends. We were all sitting at a long table partying. Apparently the bartender (female) yelled last call which was no problem since we had order a picture of beer which was 3/4 of the way gone. Anyway, all of a sudden the bartender comes over and starts talking smack and demanding we leave ... it is 1:50 and Kansas bars close at 2:00am. Most of the bars we have been to (if we stay until closing) always turns the lights on and walks around calmly asking the patrons to quickly finish their drinks and leave. Well this bartender was aggressive, rude and demanding, and threaten to kick my ass if I didn't leave.... when I told her I would like to finish my beer she said I couldn't and again threatened to kick my ass! She then proceeded to grab the pitcher of beer which I quickly grabbed onto and jerked it out of her hand. She said if you don't give me that I'm going to come around there and kick your old pussy ... so I jumped up and said "don't bother I'm am coming around there" which I proceeded to do and when I approached her she took a swing at me, so to protect myself I went to grab her right arm that was in the process trying to land a second blow; apparently I missed and my hand pulled her earring out of her ear, (someone said I swung at her, but I was not drunk (feeling good yes, drunk no) I think want they saw was me going to grab her arm from hitting me again ... anyway; I then quickly grab a hold of her shirt around the neck to try and restrain her from further attempts to hit me and to try and calm her down but she was so drunk and combative that she kept trying to hit me with her right hand which I was defending off with my left hand. My husband (who was at the bar tabbing out) noticed the fight and came over to try and break it up. He told me to let go of her, so I did. We then quickly exited the bar. On our way out, a lady that was sitting at the bar said "well that was bound to happen." I later talked with our friends whom we met at the bar and who know the owner of bar and bartender very well. They told me that this particular bartender was the niece of the owner of the bar and that the whole family was nothing but a bunch of alcoholics. They actually went back to the bar Sunday night and talked to the bartender that assaulted me. They said that she was real embarrassed about the incident (which means she probably didn't remember a thing.) Anyway...I was just wanting some insight on who was in the wrong here? ... I'm not the suing type, however; there is a first time for everything.
