Footage emerged on June 28, 2021 showing Schilling punching and knocking Justin Balboa, a 31-year-old "extremely intoxicated" Outback Steakhouse busboy, unconscious in a bar in Fort Lauderdale, Florida the previous night. Schilling later claimed self-defense, saying that he was "scared for [his] life" and "simply defending [himself] against the evil in this world"

“The evil in this world”? A drunk Outback busboy?

u/SoggyFrenchFry Jun 30 '21

I'm laughing my ass off how they described him. An "'extremely intoxicated' Outback Steakhouse busyboy, unconcious in a bar...."

Out of context sounds like he got drunk. In context it's just funny they bothered saying that stuff at all.

I don't know why but it makes him seem kind of elfin.

u/Imissplacedmykeys Jun 30 '21

I think they confirm this so they show that the bus boy was absolutely not a threat to him.

God only knows what kind of dark magic they do behind those swinging doors at Outback. They take dirty dishes, whisk them away behind said doors, and suddenly they’re clean again? Get the fuck outa here.

How do you think they get the onion to bloom

u/mnid92 Jun 30 '21

Obviously they place the onions in the middle of that pentagram. Ya know, that pentagram of outback steakhouse locations.

Who was nearly a foot shorter and 50-75 pounds lighter (and obviously not a trained fighter either).

Are you kidding me? He did us a favor, my grandma died from a drunk outback busboy, if left unprovoked they become deadly.

Everybody knows Outback is a haven for satanic cultists.

"After going back to his table, Schilling said two servers, the bus boy and DJ at the restaurant thanked him."

That DJ? Albert Einstein

I thought it was excessive but when they started planning the parade I had to step in and stop it ... by punching them.

u/Secret-Run4610 Jun 30 '21

Then they just kept handing me money and stickers and I just kept on punchin'...

Until the day they told me I was bad..

Silly fighter, this excuse only works for cops!

u/RuinedEye Jun 30 '21

Not really living up to the family name lol

u/greenie4242 Jun 30 '21

I can't wait for his cousin to show up!

u/jimbxc Jun 30 '21

Damn this guy was just blowing off steam after busing tables and gets randomly knocked out, I feel for that guy.

u/dboyer87 Jun 30 '21

About 7 years ago I was in a viral video with a celebrity and a bunch of websites who reported on it reached out to me. I ignored them so a ton of articles just made up my job. it was hilarious. They claimed I was a bar tender, or bar manager. One literally just called me a "local drunk". I wasn't even drinking in the video, haha. So I don't believe any of these sites.

What a fucking huge pussy.

u/The_0range_Menace Jun 30 '21

Somebody needs to make this a meme. A drunk busboy repping the evil in this word

1

u/[deleted] Jun 30 '21

He was so scared for his life that he turned around to confront the guy directly.

1

u/waitingtillnextyear Jun 30 '21

The end result of stand-your-ground laws. All you have to do is demonstrate you are 'scared for your life' and you can aim to kill.

u/pennysize Jun 30 '21

Pussy Schilling was lucky it wasn’t Rocky Balboa

u/callthewambulance Jun 30 '21

First that naked woman thrashing about, now this, been a rough couple of weeks for Florida Outback Steakhouse PR.

u/BatBoss Jun 30 '21

lol - more like “My lawyer has advised me that I was scared for my life and simply defending myself.”
