Guns, steak, and rage this is the perfect Texan story.

The altercation occurred after a customer was unhappy with his meal, so he started a fight with the waiter, eventually, the waiter fired three shots in the air inside a semi-full restaurant.
An unidentified man walked into to the steakhouse for a lunch time meal. During the meal, the customer became displeased with the meal he received and complained to the waiter serving the food. A small scuffle began between the patron and the waiter, Crystal Halliday told Dallas News, that the customer "was the one that threw the first punch, he was a larger man, so he was on top of the waiter, beating him up pretty bad. I believe he also hit him with a computer that was there at the hostess stand."
