Lil Rudy’s Bouncer Interview Pt.3

While our last two interviews focused on bouncers who have been hired within the last year or so, this interview focuses on an employee who has almost 4 years under his belt. He was hired in January of 2021, which means he is one of the longest tenured bar employees in the entire community. Ethan has done his time at Lil Rudy’s, but he more vividly remembers his experience working for Fat Daddy’s, prior to the ownership change.

Stop Playin’ University Interview Questions

SPU: What is your favorite bar?

Ethan: My favorite bar to go to has to be Rowdy Reptile. I know is called Rowdy Rudy now, but it was a lot more fun when it still held the awesome Reptile title.

SPU: Who is your favorite bartender?

Ethan:My favorite bartender is either Miranda or Sammy. Miranda makes a mean White Tea shot, but Sammy and I go way back, so for me this is definitely a toss up.

SPU: What is your drink of choice?

Ethan: My drink of choice is either a Whiskey Ginger or a Whiskey Sour. Gone are the days where I can drink Vodka Redbulls, so I needed to make a switch.

SPU: Craziest thing you have seen while at work?

Ethan: I have seen too many crazy things to count. I will say though, my mind is consistently blown by the people who fall down the stairs and just pop right back up. Every single time.

SPU: What does Stop Playin’ mean to you?

Ethan: Stop Playin’ is more than just a saying. It’s a movement. Any person who has been around the bars recently has seen a Stop Playin’ hat. This means that Stop Playin’ is a mindset that means to lock in and have fun.
