Drunk Woman Causes Epic Scene at SLP Bar

Prospective patron became angry after being denied admittance at Toby Keith's I Love This Bar & Grill.

This might be one for the record books.

On Dec. 27, a 5-foot, 3-inch, 130-pound woman decided to take on a 6-foot, 2-inch, 250-pound bouncer at Toby Keith’s I Love This Bar & Grill, according to a report filed by officers with the St. Louis Park Police Department.

Around 11 p.m., the woman cruised up to the bar door and attempted to get in. According to police, the bouncer on duty at the door denied her admittance, as she was “very drunk.” This did not sit well with the 24-year old Zumbrota, MN, resident. According to the 28-year old bouncer, she punched him in the chest multiple times and attempted to kick him in the groin.

Police, who were already on the scene for an unrelated call, heard the commotion and came over. At this point, a second, Toby Keith’s employee was attempting to “control” the woman, who was screaming and “actively resisting,” police said. A crowd, the police report said, was “alarmed” and was backing away from the woman.

According to the report, the woman screamed obscenities at officers when they asked her what the problem was. As police tried to question her, the report said, they discovered she could “barely communicate and could not format full sentences.”
