I punched a power tripping bouncer in the face, anyone else have issues with them?

[Karlos Santos]

this bouncer was giving me a hard time telling me I wouldn't get in because I "looked a little drunk."

Im afraid thats exactly what hes paid to do.

So I know a few big people here and asked for them to come out and resolve this mess and no one would get them. they decided to screw with me for some reason and didn't let me into a concert I had paid for. He literally took my ticket and ripped it up. I was pissed and left.

Dont quite understand this bit but doesnt that make you as bad as them.

I was so pissed off at this point I punched him straight in the face. I'm just a small white guy and I just punched a six foot black bouncer in the face. I knew I would only get one shot and at least it was good before I had two bigger guys on top of me pinning me down.
?

Why ? Theres nothing clever about getting a smack down.


Theres only one lesson to learn about bouncers and its that you cannot ever win an argument with them.

very true, and as much as everyone may dislike them, image clubs without them...

dude. I know there's a lot of people throwing ya down for doing this, but damn.... Fever Ray AND Royksopp (yah I know its been said), AND on your girls b-day? I'd be a bit pissed myself, regardless of how drunk i was (probably more pissed if I actually was drunk to be honest).

Really it boils down to... how drunk were you the first day. I mean, it sucks that he held a grudge out against you, but if it was merited the first time... thats kind of his job

Now if you weren't drunk.... damn, I'm sorry man, that really sucks. Really.

I know where yours coming from but pretty much there aint shit you can do, no matter who you know unless that contact is outside.

The only time Ive ever been denied entry was when I was sober and had tripped slightly on the curb as we walked up to the club, I'm pretty good at acting sober when needed.

I was a little drunk the first time and he ripped up my ticket, that's not appropriate at all. Poeple pre-game for clubs and concerts all the time and go from one to the next. The second two times I was dead sober and he was just being a dick, he held a grudge against me because I got him in trouble the second time (when he had absolutely no reason to deny me entry) and this time I was fed up. I wasn't getting in, I knew I would never go back there so the best thing I could do is inflict some pain upon him for being such as ass.

Luckilly I did get to see Royksopp the night before, but it wasn't with my girlfriend on her birthday which was what was important. People are saying it's bouncers jobs to not let drunk people in? I wasn't drunk and people go to clubs drunk all the time. I also agree with people saying you can never win an argument with a bouncer, which is why I did what I did.

Also in response to someone else- I'm only small and white in comparison to the big and black bouncers. I'm really glad I did what I did and it was totally worth it. I'm not going back there any time soon. I would understand a little more if it was just a club night where they can let whoever they want in, but for a ticketed concert that is fucked up. I'm out over $100 because of that cocksucker and it ruined my girlfriend's birthday.

Can someone tell me how this is relevant?

[sine143]

yeah... I'm gonna withdraw this.

[Karlos Santos]

I dont think we should get into this. I think this could be picked apart until it cant be put back together again.

Fucking car crash of a thread and time to close it in my opinion.

[kelsey7k]

taking back mine too

I quoted the "small white" part, so i don't think hes being racist here but proving
people skills are definitely a plus if you want to be a successful dj.
& apparently even come handy just to go see one..
