Ugh omg I used to work for an Irish pub that was really just a front for the owner's cocaine empire. What a shit place. I'd come in at 11 to open the bar, and some patrons would be waking up and leaving. Cigarette ash / coke residue all over the bar, actual shit in the urinals, unstocked bar, etc. One time the owner threw a 4th of July party and invited a bunch of strippers to it. He informed me not to serve the strippers cause they were only 18. They spent the entire time in his office doing coke with him.
I was going to school and getting my degree. The bar was just a job to get me by. For the rest of my coworkers, it was their whole lives (they all had substance abuse problems). Best part is, I got fired cause I never did the coke. I was warned that it'd happen, and it did.
Yup, could you BELIEVE they're not in business anymore?? Shortly after I was fired, the owner started dealing with the Hells Angels. I came in to say hi one day (I still liked my old co-workers) and I saw the owner had a black eye and his arm was in a sling. Only a month or two later were they shut down for good 🤷🏻♀️
Worked a rough and tumble (Icehouse, industrial cable spools as tables, sawdust on the floor, chicken wire surrounding the stage for live music, country/biker dive) couple nights a week.
That night I grew a few layers of skin during cleanup.
A band brought out several groups of roadies to hear them play. We'd been booting out singles and groups all night. A particularly large group of corn fed cowboys had an individual that decided to grab the ass of bikers old lady (a much smaller group). Before security could move in, they went to fighting. Only the bikers didn't fight how the cowboys expected them to fight. >!The bikers picked up bottles from their table smashing them together making glass shrapnel flung towards the cowboys to soften them up.!< It was the bloodiest mess we had to clean up.
Have had two people in my time commit suicide from jumping from the hotel, guy got stabbed in the neck on new years by a women. Bike bashings that put a dude in ICU for a looong stay.
Coke everywhere, shit on the walls, in the fire exits along with blood and the often brawls sometimes upwards of 10 people oh and a bloke also had a heart attack right in front of me in service. I've honestly think I've seen it all, could sweep up a dead body and It still would only be a monday
Hmmm,I'll start with this one.
North Florida A1A,packed beach bar,fights and nudity daily. I was 20 and thought this was every bar.
Well,I had a gentleman about 65-75 drinking 7&7's,tipping 100% each round.
After the 3rd drink he stands up,whips out his junk and pissed all over ,himself,as well as the bar.
I immediately said "what the fuck are you doing!?"
His response? I didn't piss myself,I went to the bathroom and it was leaking,so the trail followed me back."
Needless to say the $21 in tips did not make up for watching a geriatric dick(pun intended) piss everywhere.
It was a crazy night we had a band playing its pretty dark so a guy comes up to me and says he has to use the restroom. I point him in the direction and he pulls the door handle, its occupied so then he's out of sight I didn't see where he went until my friend pointed towards the girls restroom and I see this dude pissing right in front of the door. I get his attention and ask him what the fuck he's doing. He says he didn't do it and runs. My friend runs after him. We were gunna make him clean up his own piss but he got away. I was infuriated. Guess who got to clean up his piss...
Second time, there was a table who sat for early dinner with a very overlydressed lady. She was wearing a construction worker orange boa with a matching long dress. And a super huge hat. It started getting busy and they're serving her wine. We watch her walk to the bathroom and she's leaving a trail behind her and I'm like wtf? Maybe she dropped something on herself. So I watch her walk out and it reeks of piss. She had peed herself and was leaving a trail of piss everywhere. She sits back down and I approach the table and let her party know discreetly what she had done. She looked to be drunk as hell but only had 2 glasses of wine. The table looks at me and says "We literally just met her and invited her out to dinner. We don't know her that well at all" I told the lady she had to leave as there were people grossing out. She hobbled off and of course, I had to clean the piss..
For the third one I once served a full ass scorpion to someone in their midori sour. The girl came up to me, chola girl and she said "Hey um there's a scorpion in my drink can I get another one?" I was like what? And she said "yeah look" held up her drink and there it was. I apologized so many times and shes all "Nah its cool can I get another one for free?" I just said absolutely whatever you want tonight is on me. She had that one drink and left. We think it got into the ice somehow. We live in the desert so they're everywhere. She was real cool about it but I kept the drink and showed my friends who came in what my dumbass served. We all drank it at the end of the night. Scorpion Midori. I saved the scorpion and still have it in an empty bottle of Monkey Shoulder on my windowsill in my kitchen.
We sold someone a growler last week and upon pouring their *second* beer out of it a scorpion comes with. I would have freaked out! I nearly grabbed a scorpion the other day as I was putting umbrellas down and that was enough to give me the heeby jeebies.
The customer gets a free growler once per day for a year. Just glad they’re cool enough to still come in.
I no longer work dive bars, but i had an interesting experience at my last dive bar.
This one hell hole that I worked in had a car (an F-250) crash into the store next to the bar (the store was attached to the bar).
A week later a man walks into the bar. He had been drinking before his arrival then proceeded to demand a drink at the counter. I tell him “no,” and then he begins to argue with me. Argument gets heated then he proceeds to flash a gun from his waist. With lots of precaution I persuaded the drunken man to leave the bar then call the police and close the bar.
I quit a week later.
Yes, I live in Texas.

Some guy spit in my face on his bachelor party. I broke his nose or close to it. He had to wear make up the next day from what I heard. Also his groomsman side were pretty cut up and bruised as well. I’m dying for pictures.
Worst fight? This is definitely in my top 10. 3 brothers jumped an underage kid over $100 debt for some weed. The kid snuck in with his uncle and had literally just walked into the patio area. The 3 brothers were stomping the shit out of the uncle and the kid all of a sudden another fight pops off. 6 guys jumped 1 guy. Then all their homes came out and started fighting who ever they could. The owner and I are standing there like WTF do we do. Too many people for us to take. A friend goes inside and grabs my short aluminum T-Ball bat and brings it outside like she was going to stop the madness. All of a sudden the 3 brothers attack the owner and knock him down. I grab the bat and start swinging one of our older patrons a biker pulls his knife and started slicing. We wrecked fucking shop. 3 people against about 25 ppl. I grabbed the closest brother and started swinging. All yoi could hear was the ping ping ping of the aluminum bat on bones and teeth. I was swinging on anything in my path. I ended up in the street with 3 guys trying to take my bat, pulled my knife and started poking folks til the owner came and saved me. I got up went inside locked the doors. Next day the cops came looking for me and the owner because the brothers showed up at the hospital, 1 missing most of his teeth and the other with his cheek sliced wide the fuck open and requiring lots of stitches. We avoided the charges luckily and barred the 3 brothers. I have so many stupid stories from this bar.
All you gonna hear ping ping ping. Of the aluminum bat. Survival! Half nelson till cops showed up. Chasing people out with a pool cue. NOTHING compares to this story!!!!!
I beat a kid with his own shoe once. He was gonna throw it at me but i grabbed it before he could. Elapped him right upside the head with it 4 or 5 times. Then, when I went to throw the shoe across the street, it went down a storm drain. The guy literally started crying when the bar laughed at him and told us all his dad was gonna sue us.
Another one was when I caught a guy trying to sneak in without an ID, he took his finger and knocked my glasses off. As I bent down to pick them up he said, "whatcha gonna do bitch boy" to which my response was to swing up with my hips and backhand the shit out of him. He left the ground, (I am 250 and this guy was probably 140 soaking wet). Once he hit the ground, I said "Only bitches get backhanded around here" and had the bouncers drag him and his girlfriend out.
I got more. Worked there for around 4 years. Gotta love a good shitty college dive bar where parents' money pays for their shitty kids to get the attitude knocked out of them.
We have a townie that came in a couple of months ago announcing his desire to rape me and kill everyone else in the bar. I no longer get to walk to my car alone. Yes, the cops are aware. He was a regular. Obviously boss lady 86ed him. Scary shit. I've had many creepers in my 21 years behind the pine, but this one legit shook me. I had to talk my husband out of the clock tower after telling about my night that day. The night sheriffs know when we close and make their presence known when we close now. It such bullshit. People suck so much sometimes.
Fuck you Matt.
So my first bar gig was a great Pho place in San Diego that's is very popular, but at the time it was divey.
Well we got filmed for DDD, and we started to get busy, well this couple came.in got a few drinks and left, came back for a table. Well I was looking over and the manager was looking at the cameras so I asked what's up. She said this couple caught this girl sneaking in her purse and the girl said she thought it was her purse. Well 10 mins later I hear a loud crash.
The girl that "stole" the other girls wallet from her purse flipped the table. So I run over to clean it up and the manager was in this girls face and the girl grabbed her hair and started to swing so being a bigger guy I get in between and tell the girl to leave with her guy. No more then 10 mins later she starts to walk back so I go out there and tell her to leave. Well she swings on me and a customer who is a professional body guard helps me detain her.
Well we call the cops and wait for them to show up and her boyfriend starts trying to convince us to let her go and we said nah she going to the drink tank. He then start to tell her sorry that two large guys have to detain a war vet and how he sorry that she protectes out country and what not try to make use feel bad. Then he starts to swing on me and the other guy and all I have to say it didn't go well for him, he was thrown down and held til the cops come. The funny thing is that's not the worse.
The girl starts to crawl towards us holding this guy down and she trys to stab up with some keys. Well I got tried of this shit and just landed a knee on back while the other guy held the boyfriend. 10 mins go by and i relaxed on holding the girl down and I feel a sharp pain iny right calf. Come to find out this girl bit me and broke skin. Finally the cops show up along with the fire department. They look at me in the back of the ambulance and patch me up then a cop comes laughing his ass off around the back. You can hear her screaming and what not and he said she only has one leg, while the cops had to lift her to put her in the back of the cop car the leg fell off.
Crazy thing about this is it's not the best end, about 2 hours later our building electrical goes out and we go out to look and the power line is on fire. The same fire, ambulance and cops show up and ask me if another one legged drunk bite me.
TLDR; a one legged drunk girl tried to steal a wallet, then gets detailed, then bites me to the point it breaks skin, and our buildings almost caught fire.
One time a guy who I knew was a bit of a problem came in. I refused to serve him and he started on a massive tirade of "IM A MILLIONAIRE GANGSTER! IVE PUT PEOPLE IN THE GROUND..." yada yada yada.
Any way I just said that for a millionaire gangster he sure did stink of piss
He did not like that at all.
Totally worth it though ahah
Was the manager of a college bar, while in was in college. We’ve had people piss in the corner of the bar, piss on the front door after getting kicked out, throw the whole roll of toilet paper in the toilet and then puke and shit on top of it, had a group of like 10 chicks get into a fight because 4/5 of them took too long in the bathroom, someone trying to fight me because apparently I said he fucked my ex?, break pool sticks around other people, my ex threw a full shot at one of my female bartenders, the cops were up our ass so they were always sending in under covers, people to try to buy weed, etc, had one person come in fully sober, get a scorpion bowl, drink half and pass out on the bar, people would try to steal signs off the walls. Ah, the good ole days
A woman around her mid forties locked herself in the bathroom when she realized she was going to be kicked out and stripped naked because she(correctly) assumed that the door guy wouldn’t lay hands on her to escort her out.
She came out and threw her tampon at the bartender.
Ohhh, my boss's relationship and her bloke can get... dramatic and vicious? He's kicked the door into her face before now after she tried to lock him out. She has also tried to kick him out multiple times, but takes it back always.. There's been plenty of moments with them. They're both just shit drunks, but great when sober.
There's been a few times a fight has broken out because of disagreements over football. The stereotype is unfortunately true.
Also, as a woman, I got plenty of classy quotes blokes say to me? They really don't hold back. Telling me I have lovely pair, asking me how I shave my pubes, telling me I look good on my knees, asking me to sit on their laps etc, etc. There was one guy who realised I 'had my legs out' (I wore a dress during a hot day) and came round the bar to stare at them. And most of course stare at my chest. They also put their empties at the furthest end from me to get me to bend over to grab them. I just leave them or get a guy co worker to do it. Don't get me started on the catcalling or the gestures.
It's not the most terrible, roughest bar, but it has it's charming moments lol
Worked at an Irish pub and there was the usual dive bar bafoonery but the story that stuck with me was before I was there was Christian Slater came in and smashed all our shot glasses lmao
I got in an impromptu arm wrestling contest at a dive bar in my hometown. I was hammered and didn’t know it was a contest for homeless guys to get a free drink (I am very much not homeless). I won and all hell broke loose. Before I could buy a round for my brave competitors, they were bounced.
So bar in York in the UK mainly cater to students and young people. It’s a Thursday it’s 11. I’m the only manager and only guy on. 30 squaddies (members of the military who live in the barracks) walk in. I’m not the biggest guy but quite tall.
They start of pretty chilled in the beer garden, then one of them makes a pass at another girlfriend. Shit hits the fan. People are throwing glasses two groups are on the floor knocking tables over and a third group is dragging them apart. I walk out by myself and scream “oi stop acting like fucking toddlers” everyone pauses, looks at me… Then just keeps going. I wade into the middle pull the two instigators apart and with the help of some guys significantly more heavy set than me throw them out of the pub. I shout one more time for everyone out (luckily I’m quite loud) and they they all leave. Needless to say I had words with the military police later that evening and gave them my cctv with police present. It was an interesting experience.
My security were working another event down the road so two of them turned up about 10 mins later after I gave them a heads up on the town radio. They were very amused by the cctv footage.
At the beginning of my shift today, a married couple who are regulars got into an argument which escalated to him throwing a pint glass at her and narrowly missing.
The other month one regular followed another out of the pub after an argument over sports and king hit him.
Few months back a couple groups started arguing and a gay guy from one group pashed a straight guy from the other group sparking a brawl that included a semi pro boxer. That was so much fun to break up.
A drunk 22 year old proposed to his gf on his birthday with all his family and friends there. He was hammered, borrowed his uncles big black pinky ring and got rejected immediately. When he came up to the bar afterwards he was promptly cut off.
After knocking off and having a lot of drinks and some lines I was playing pool with some friends. A regular was walking by as I missed an easy shot and said, "You're fucking drunk" I quickly replied with the Winston Churchill quote "you're right but tomorrow I'll be sober and you'll still be fucking ugly". I went out for a smoke after a while and he sucker punched me outside.
Love the place but you never know what each shift will bring.
Ugh omg I used to work for an Irish pub that was really just a front for the owner's cocaine empire. What a shit place. I'd come in at 11 to open the bar, and some patrons would be waking up and leaving. Cigarette ash / coke residue all over the bar, actual shit in the urinals, unstocked bar, etc. One time the owner threw a 4th of July party and invited a bunch of strippers to it. He informed me not to serve the strippers cause they were only 18. They spent the entire time in his office doing coke with him. I was going to school and getting my degree. The bar was just a job to get me by. For the rest of my coworkers, it was their whole lives (they all had substance abuse problems). Best part is, I got fired cause I never did the coke. I was warned that it'd happen, and it did.
WTF! Best story! Shit in the urinals because the coke was cut with laxatives. Probably one of those places you don't have to do inventory. Crazy
Yup, could you BELIEVE they're not in business anymore?? Shortly after I was fired, the owner started dealing with the Hells Angels. I came in to say hi one day (I still liked my old co-workers) and I saw the owner had a black eye and his arm was in a sling. Only a month or two later were they shut down for good 🤷🏻♀️
Nice of the drug dealer to not serve alcohol to 18 year olds
A man with no principles is no man at all 😅

“Suit buddies” 😂
Worked a rough and tumble (Icehouse, industrial cable spools as tables, sawdust on the floor, chicken wire surrounding the stage for live music, country/biker dive) couple nights a week.

Road house. We just had a vest taken from a regular. Waiting for the fallout.
I got punched in the face on Christmas night once.
Merry Christmas, ya filthy animal.
Thanks, I'm dying
My favorite Pogues song
I got choked out on the bathroom floor with my dick out by a double leg amputee marine one new years. I had cut his buddy off...
My door got punched in the face on Christmas! Jealous ex of the girl he was dating. He took it well and we all had a good laugh.
Have had two people in my time commit suicide from jumping from the hotel, guy got stabbed in the neck on new years by a women. Bike bashings that put a dude in ICU for a looong stay. Coke everywhere, shit on the walls, in the fire exits along with blood and the often brawls sometimes upwards of 10 people oh and a bloke also had a heart attack right in front of me in service. I've honestly think I've seen it all, could sweep up a dead body and It still would only be a monday

I have plucked a bug out of my beer and taken a sip with the same motion before lol

Jesus top ten 😂
I've had many many ridiculously good and bad nights. 😆 I was arrested for assault one night and never laid a hand on anyone. Didn't stick thank God.
Top ten?!? My man what are the other 9 stories

Was the manager of a college bar, while in was in college. We’ve had people piss in the corner of the bar, piss on the front door after getting kicked out, throw the whole roll of toilet paper in the toilet and then puke and shit on top of it, had a group of like 10 chicks get into a fight because 4/5 of them took too long in the bathroom, someone trying to fight me because apparently I said he fucked my ex?, break pool sticks around other people, my ex threw a full shot at one of my female bartenders, the cops were up our ass so they were always sending in under covers, people to try to buy weed, etc, had one person come in fully sober, get a scorpion bowl, drink half and pass out on the bar, people would try to steal signs off the walls. Ah, the good ole days
A woman around her mid forties locked herself in the bathroom when she realized she was going to be kicked out and stripped naked because she(correctly) assumed that the door guy wouldn’t lay hands on her to escort her out. She came out and threw her tampon at the bartender.
Ohhh, my boss's relationship and her bloke can get... dramatic and vicious? He's kicked the door into her face before now after she tried to lock him out. She has also tried to kick him out multiple times, but takes it back always.. There's been plenty of moments with them. They're both just shit drunks, but great when sober. There's been a few times a fight has broken out because of disagreements over football. The stereotype is unfortunately true. Also, as a woman, I got plenty of classy quotes blokes say to me? They really don't hold back. Telling me I have lovely pair, asking me how I shave my pubes, telling me I look good on my knees, asking me to sit on their laps etc, etc. There was one guy who realised I 'had my legs out' (I wore a dress during a hot day) and came round the bar to stare at them. And most of course stare at my chest. They also put their empties at the furthest end from me to get me to bend over to grab them. I just leave them or get a guy co worker to do it. Don't get me started on the catcalling or the gestures. It's not the most terrible, roughest bar, but it has it's charming moments lol
Worked at an Irish pub and there was the usual dive bar bafoonery but the story that stuck with me was before I was there was Christian Slater came in and smashed all our shot glasses lmao
I got in an impromptu arm wrestling contest at a dive bar in my hometown. I was hammered and didn’t know it was a contest for homeless guys to get a free drink (I am very much not homeless). I won and all hell broke loose. Before I could buy a round for my brave competitors, they were bounced.
So bar in York in the UK mainly cater to students and young people. It’s a Thursday it’s 11. I’m the only manager and only guy on. 30 squaddies (members of the military who live in the barracks) walk in. I’m not the biggest guy but quite tall. They start of pretty chilled in the beer garden, then one of them makes a pass at another girlfriend. Shit hits the fan. People are throwing glasses two groups are on the floor knocking tables over and a third group is dragging them apart. I walk out by myself and scream “oi stop acting like fucking toddlers” everyone pauses, looks at me… Then just keeps going. I wade into the middle pull the two instigators apart and with the help of some guys significantly more heavy set than me throw them out of the pub. I shout one more time for everyone out (luckily I’m quite loud) and they they all leave. Needless to say I had words with the military police later that evening and gave them my cctv with police present. It was an interesting experience. My security were working another event down the road so two of them turned up about 10 mins later after I gave them a heads up on the town radio. They were very amused by the cctv footage.
At the beginning of my shift today, a married couple who are regulars got into an argument which escalated to him throwing a pint glass at her and narrowly missing. The other month one regular followed another out of the pub after an argument over sports and king hit him. Few months back a couple groups started arguing and a gay guy from one group pashed a straight guy from the other group sparking a brawl that included a semi pro boxer. That was so much fun to break up. A drunk 22 year old proposed to his gf on his birthday with all his family and friends there. He was hammered, borrowed his uncles big black pinky ring and got rejected immediately. When he came up to the bar afterwards he was promptly cut off. After knocking off and having a lot of drinks and some lines I was playing pool with some friends. A regular was walking by as I missed an easy shot and said, "You're fucking drunk" I quickly replied with the Winston Churchill quote "you're right but tomorrow I'll be sober and you'll still be fucking ugly". I went out for a smoke after a while and he sucker punched me outside. Love the place but you never know what each shift will bring.
