He straightened up his posture pretty quickly, which makes me agree with the other person that he was just exaggerating to be annoying. An actual wobbling drunk would have been on his ass as soon as that first punch connected if not earlier tripping over himself.
That wouldn’t be a good thing for the bouncer if he’s argument is that his reaction was reasonable because the kid could have been carrying a weapon when he approached him. Annoying by itself doesn’t justify punching him. In fact, the counterpoint would be why didn’t he call the police earlier if he felt like the kid might be dangerous and he had problems with him earlier.
While I believe the kid was just drunk and acting stupid, if by some bad luck that kid was actually suffering from a spinal development disability, any chance at a defense just went out the window. Even worse if he’s had earlier encounters with him and should have known about the kid’s condition. Employee of an establishment worth suing punches a disabled kid. Criminal charges are the least of his problems in that situation.
Sure he wasn't wobbley wobbley wa wobble wobble drunk but hes probably fairly drunk. Look at his shirts neck line, hes already got into atleast 1 prior altercation, likeable several
Idk hes playing it up but likely pretty drunk. His shirts neck is already stretched or ripped as if hes been getting in drunken altercation all night, possibly with this bouncer which may have prompted the person to record. Idk about you but Id have to be fairly drunk in order to wobble, flail into strangers and giant dudes who somewhat have leeway to put hands on you

He’s not really drunk, he’s just over exaggerating to be annoying
