One night I had a table of six well-mannered corporate types, but when they found out that a bottle of wine was only 8 dollars their true colors came out. After 3 bottles one lively fellow started yelling to one of my other tables about how great the wine was treating him, then upon realizing that the mother and 16 year old daughter he was terrifying were not interested, he turned miraculously sober and said, “Oh sorry, already had a couple, it’s a great deal! “ He then turned to me and said in an Irish accent, “Another bottle of wine laddy!” His slightly less drunk colleague starts laughing and says, “Wrong accent man”. Not missing a beat our jubilant main character screamed, “ARRRRRR!” and knocked over his glass. Good thing he had another bottle coming.

The restaurants i have worked in all had rules that we were not allowed to continually serve people who were visibly intoxicated, so he would not even be allowed to have another bottle of wine!
Yeah, I was thinking the same thing. We’re supposed to cut them off the moment they seem to become even slightly intoxicated. In a lot of circumstances, the servers and the restaurant can be a held a lot more responsible for something bad happening than people may think.
