I heard this the other day, and I think it sounds rediculous. Who says that?

I have heard of this all my life-it is a very common slang word for barkeeper.
Quick definitions (barkeep)
noun: an employee who mixes and serves alcoholic drinks at a bar

In The Netherlands, the English word "barkeeper" is the common word for the person who serves the drinks at the bar.

I've heard it before (as I used to be a bartender) usually from guys being silly. I actually like it.

I hear it a lot in old westerns. It seems to be used by the unruly troublemakers.
Just FYI, it looks ridiculous the way you spell "rediculous".
