Excellent!

Had an uncle who had surgery. When his wife arrived at the hospital, everyone said, “Oh, you’re the champ’s wife.”
Apparently he had claimed the was the middleweight boxing champion of the world and he was going to get out of those straps and kick everybody’s ass.”

Hubby did the same thing. I could hear the commotion all the way down the hall. He had run off every nurse and doctor around. No one wanted to go near him. They finally sent for me and were fluttering around asking if I would be ok with him. I still didn't have a clue what the heck they were so upset about until I walked into Recovery. They had moved out the other patients and a male nurse was cowering in the corner. Haha, I only had to tell him to be quiet and behave himself and that immediately put a stop to his ranting. The nurses still didn't trust him and kept peeking in asking if I was ok. As soon as he could sort of sit in a wheelchair, they got him to the car. It's still funny after all these years, lol. I won't say what I did in Recovery but hubby still thinks it's hilarious. I'm sure the nurse is still talking about it, too. Someone really should write a book about the crazy things patients say and do in Recovery.

I used to see that reaction from guys who were anesthetized with Jack Daniels.
