Bouncer
The quintessential bouncer is normally considered to be a big, ugly, brute of a man. I would be more worried about the small silent guy leaning against the doorway, or the lusty serving wench. I have learned that the big guy is for intimidation, while the ones you don't pay attention to are the real muscle. They usually have ways of dealing with the unruly you would never expect.
