Bar horror: "I once had a guy throw a full can of Red Bull at me. That's one of the two times I've almost gone over the bar after somebody. And when I asked him why the hell he did it (as he was being kicked out), he said, 'I just thought it would get your attention.' I thought, 'I'm going to kill this man.' I don't know what I would have done (if the can had hit me). I probably would've cried. It would've been the only time I've cried behind the bar."
