Schwartz Throws A Drink On Katie

Oh yes, the old days of theSUR gang in Cabo. After Scheana is (once again) the odd one out, she decides to ride with the guys' van on the way to the resort and says she "would rather be gang-banged by all five of you guys than ride with the four girls", to which Jax immediately runs to tell Stassi.

Incensed, Stassi ignores Scheana at the club later, and of course, Kristen/Katie follow suit. When Katie's boyfriend Tom Schwartz gives Scheana a free drink, Katie turns into what is now known as 'Tequila Katie' and rages on him. After not listening to Schwartz's pleas, heends up pouring a drink on Katie's head!They're now "happily" married and just bought a house together.

"Rawt In Hail!"

Kentucky native Brittany begins to lose it after learning herlong-term boyfriend Jax cheated on her with one of their coworkers. Who wouldn't be livid? Jax comes upstairs to their bedroom after she reveals his adultering-ass to her mom, and Brittany tells him to "rot in hell" which sounds a lot like "rawt in hail", whichbecame its own meme.

This moment wasranked ninth most iconic by the Reddit poll. Jax and Brittany have worked through their problems, and married in June 2019. The two aretrying for a baby"as soon as possible",according to Jax.

"More Cos-Mo-Poli-Tans! PUMPTINI!"

James especially loves to grind Jax's gears, pissing him off to no avail. After being scolded by a coworker for making a bad drink, James giggles at the DJ booth while Jax seethes behind the bar, unable to fight him due to being on probation fromgetting arrested after stealing a pair of sunglassesduring a cast trip to Hawaii.
