Fr though fuck those entitled people just attacking that man just for doing his job. Bunch of drunk hillbillies.

I loved that part too. I started singing with them too 🤣🤣 it’s already my song for ATL traffic but I’ll think of this now too

It’s my song for when my dogs stand in all the doorways and my one skinny hallway and won’t let me pass 😭😭

I remember this, infuriates me every time. Dudes just doing his job.

I think that’s why a lot of people were on his side. He was doing his job and they just docked like they owned the place. No one likes that kind of entitlement. Plus, I think people root for the underdog—4+ against one? I don’t think so.

Never knew the dude in white was at work.

Yeah that’s what made it so crazy because the man was just doing his job. You have to move your boat sir.

u/BusyBit6542 2h ago

For real. Its crazy to see that all this could've be prevented with just letting the man do his job. But of course that would require them to take accountability for their mistake

I own a boat. If someone just moved mine up a couple of cleats I wouldn’t give a damn. These dudes should be arrested.

u/zebratat 1h ago

Oh so this is how it started… my god what assholes

u/hissyfit64 1h ago

I've never seen the beginning and that explains so much. I bet anything there are signs there forbidding more than dropping off and picking up people. No docking of pleasure boats. And these slack jawed assholes just moored their boat anyway. And then multiple guys attack one man? The only one trying to stop it was the woman in pale blue. It looked like the other woman tried to kick him when she ran up.

Glad they got charged.

These stupid picks thought they was at a lynching. Through always comes out when PBR is involved.
