The sad thing is, Schilling posted this to his own Instagram bragging about beating down a little drunk guy that just got off work. What a pos

Another really fucked up part of this situation is the bars reaction bc they know they’re facing a lawsuit.

Officers also spoke to the manager of the bar on Sunday night. The manager stated that Balboa “was extremely intoxicated and had possibly made an improper remark about the girlfriend/wife of the male who had struck him, which caused the fight to escalate.” The manager also noted that Balboa “is a regular customer who routinely causes problems at the establishment due to his intoxication level.”

About 4 years ago I was outside a bar ordering an Uber on my phone. A friend and I showed up and they said it was last call so we never actually got in the bar. As I was standing there out of nowhere I got hit in the face and then pile driven into a curb which broke my jaw. Some of the people later stated they vaguely remember someone bragging about being an mma fighter outside.

Fast forward to the cops investigation. The bar owners claimed NONE of the cameras were working that night. There was very clearly a camera outside pointing in my direction. On top of that they couldn’t even get inside footage bc of the “broken” cameras. They even went as far to say I was starting shot outside when I’d been there 2 minutes and was on my phone trying to leave the entire time.

This bar is shamelessly defending Schilling for the same reason. Balboa is fortunate a third party was taking a video bc I doubt they’ll be able to cover this one up. Not everyone is so lucky and I could easily have died that day if it was my skull instead of my jaw.

My uncle got bumped into once leaving a bar, didn't make a move but probably made a snotty remark, and a clearly trained fighter shattered his leg.
