Bouncer


I was watching the news yesterday morning and saw the word patovica. I had to think twice about the meaning. In English, the word is bouncer.

  2. Patovica: comes from the word "patovica", which in turn comes from "Patos Vica". In the 50's, a man named Vicente Caceres raised very well-fed ducks. An employee of the farm went a summer afternoon to the beach "The Little Staircase", in Hipólito Yrigoyen and the river, Olivos. And when he saw a group of muscle boys did not hesitate to compare categorical with "Vica ducks (Patos Vica)."
