Removing or Kicking somebody out.
Orgin: 1940's? bartender slang.
bartenders use to switch 100% proof to 86% proofs after a person got drunk. cuz the loaded person couldn't tell the differnce. and when person falls asleep at the bar they would get booted out. this would help them get more customers and save up for the more stonger and costly proofs everybody wants.
now it is used to mean to get rid of something or a person (not at bars).
