When alcohol and testosterone mix, men get a little crazy in bars and that’s why you have security. This guy must have forgotten that was his job, though.

Grotesque Gumbo (0:51)

When this bar's gumbo gets a guy puking immediately, Taffer's got a thing or two to say the cooks in the kitchen. Nothing like a little food critic to get things in order.
