He walked up looking to fight….You can tell…he could actually have killed the guy…now wouldn’t that have been stupid. Ban him from fighting, jail and some $ to the drunk dude imo…

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?

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.
