Fried and furious. Disturbing footage captured the moment a massive melee broke out on a Carnival Cruise ship among fuming passengers seemingly upset over “chicken tenders.” The violence among about two dozen brawlers erupted aboard the Sunshine at about 2 a.m. Monday — the last day of its voyage — as the ship was heading back to Miami, according to a passenger who filmed the mayhem.

Another clickbait unarticle from the tabloid NYP. Terra captioned his video: “I always hear carnival is ghetto/ratchet I been cruising for years but this my 1st time seeing some action on a ship I was on YNs was tripping.”

Carnival recently updated their rules to try and counter their ghetto image, with the usual suspects claiming racism. It seems clear those new rules aren't strict enough.

"Ghetto-ratchet" isn't what I would want to experience on board a cruise ship. All bipedal hominids aren't necessarily human beings. Stay off Carnival unless you want to end up in a melée. Too many "common" people swinging at each other.

At 2am. So by then they are either drunk as skunks or high as kites. I see several blacks in the pic Wife and I just completed a cruise around Iceland together with six different ports of call. A smaller ship with a capacity of 320 guests. A great group of folks. We loved it.

That's the one trip neither of us ever wanted to try....a cruise on one of those floating hotels with several thousand people no matter how nice the amenities. For the price, there are wonderful, beautiful resorts and getaways in the US. As far as cruises go, we took one of those Viking river cruises a few years ago on the Seine. Paris to Normandy.. A little pricey but we loved it. Only a couple of hundred people on board and a visit to the Cathedral at Notrre Dame, Versailles, The Louvre, Monet's house and Garden, stops at Rouen and of course, the Normandy Beaches and American Cemetery. Highly recommend and that's the only cruise I would ever take again.

It's called a party! Get drunk, start fights. For some people, this is what the party scene is all about. Anyone with an ounce of common sense avoids this like the plague. This is all about uncivilized people behaving in an uncivil manner. It might look like race, but it's more. Went on a Carnival Cruise. Once. Biggest problem I had was they are OVERCROWDED. I recall a quote about humanity being the only animal that seeks overcrowded conditions. I remember getting off the ship somewhere in Mexico when two other ships were letting off at the same time. Thousands of people milling around. It wasn't fun. Btw, is someone singling out Carnival Cruise Lines for criticism? Have to imagine this happens on other cruise lines too.

Our first Cruise, 23 years ago, was on Carnival! Yes, we saw the same kind of Brawl as pictured here. We never Sailed on Carnival again. We Cruise every year, on Princess, and have never had the problem again. It matters what Cruise Line you choose. Carnival isn't it for us!! We also stay away from the HUGE new Ships that have up to 10,000 people on Board. Too Big, too many Folks for us!

Click bait on the reference to chicken tenders. The reporter admitted he wasn't close enough to the melee to know what caused it, only that they were in a food line. Like one of the above posters said--someone probably "disrespected" someone, that's the usual reason "they" use. Were some of these brawlers crew? Cruises I've been on don't permit groups of crew mingling but I wonder about it in this case.

Most times these wonderful people call 911 when they can't get their chicken tenders. No connection out to sea. The next best thing to do is to start a brawl. Two things I'll have to remember, 1. Do not order the chicken tenders on a Carnival Cruise. And 2. Do not book a Carnival Cruise at any time.

This may be hard to believe but I swear on everything that is holy that it is true. I knew one who killed a man over a pork chop. I dont know when he had done it but it had to have been a long time ago cause he was on work release from prison and working in a mobile home factory that I worked in. This was in the mid 80s. ALSO, I knew another one who killed his father in law for grabbing the last chicken neck.

Five soldiers were wounded at Fort Stewart in Georgia after the US Army base’s commander reported an active shooter and placed the sprawling compound on lockdown for a little more than an hour Wednesday. The soldiers were treated at the scene and transported to Winn Army Community Hospital, according to an update from Fort Stewart just before 1 p.m. The same post said the shooter — who law enforcement sources told CNN was also a soldier — was apprehended around 40 minutes after the lockdown was declared, and there was no “active threat to the community.”

He was reportedly gathering with a group of gangsters, including Anthony “Tony Pro” Provenzano, a New Jersey-based capo for the Genovese crime family, and Detroit mob boss Anthony “Tony Jack” Giacalone.

The Appellate Division, First Department overturned the whopping fine in the case in which Trump, 78, was found to have fraudulently inflated his net worth by billions of dollars over a decade to get better loan and insurance terms. Trump would have had to pay a total of more than $500 million, including more than $100 million in interest, had the February 2024 ruling from Manhattan Supreme Court Justice Arthur Engoron been upheld.
