Tell us stories of the dodgy boozers you've been to, and what happened.

Actually, its name was the Nuthatch, but its nickname was far more appropriate. Things I witnessed there:
-A guy named Terry, famous for his shoulder-length blond hair, appeared one night shaved bald. A couple of hours later he staggered back in, face bloody from carrying a beer glass outside, tripping and falling face first onto it. He had no idea why people were staring at him and making a fuss.
-Several times I saw guys who were drinking beer while chewing tobacco, spit glass on the bar, take a gulp from the wrong one and sprint for the toilet.
-One night two guys decided to pull a classic prank. They filled a rubber hot water bottle with canned beef stew, which one of them put inside his shirt with the mouth of the bottle at the neckline. They drank a couple of beers, then the guy with the water bottle yelled "I'm gonna be sick!" and made barfing sounds as he pressed his arms to his stomach and chest to produce a fountain of chunky brown stuff that landed on the bar. His friend said "Hey, that looks pretty good!" and produced a spoon, then began eating it off the bar. Everyone ran from the bar retching, including the bartender.
I was through the area a few years ago. Even the building was gone.
