Cowboy.
One of the regulars in my local is Cowboy. He's a bonafide rancher from Nebraska now living in the big bright city.
He's a racist, homophobic, sexist piece of scum.

3 years ago, he got his 4th DUI and was incarcerated in one of Orange County's finest jails for 6 months. He still drinks and drives.

About 5 years ago, this numbskull decided it would be a good idea to pick on 4 rather large Marines that come down to the bar every week. No reason, he was just pissed as a fart and thought one of them had "looked at him funny". By this point, us regulars knew the shit was going to hit the proverbial fan, so we got the little old lady manouvered into the back by the fire door, and all started moving back ourselves.

All of a sudden, Cowboy lunges at one of the Marines, misses and breaks his knee on the side of the pool table at the same time as twatting his chin on the corner of it. Blood everywhere and bits of kneecap sticking out of his knee.

The Marines stayed until the ambulance and police came. We all gave our statements (in favour of the Marines who hadn't done a damn thing wrong!).

Cowboy went on to sue the bar, the Marines and inexplicably the little old lady (apparently it was something she'd said that started it - NOT!).
The Marines and little old lady charges were laughed out of the court.
He successfully won $28,000 out of the bar for "lack of security"...how fucked up is that?

Needless to say, he's now barred from most bars in this town.
