The old guy was clearly blasted, and kept getting in the tough guy’s face, saying “I slept with your mother.” Despite being huge and jacked, the tough guy just kept shrugging it off. The old guy laughed in the tough guy’s face, saying it again. “Hey, I slept with your mother.” Then, the old man even poked him, and repeated himself, “No seriously, I slept with your mother.” At this point, finally, the tough guy had had enough. He grabbed the old man by his jacket and began to pull him out of the bar, yelling, “That’s it. We’re going home, Dad. You’re drunk.”
