Carnival Cruise Line has banned 16 people after a massive fight broke out among passengers as they waited in a customs line in Florida.
Dramatic footage captured the moment a group of unruly individuals charged at each other at around 8am on Monday after the Carnival Conquest ship docked at Port Miami following a trip to the Bahamas.
Two unidentified women kicked off the brawl as one of them, dressed in a black strapless dress, ducked under a line divider and started swinging at a woman in polka dot pajamas.
Another woman, who donned a yellow and white maxi-dress, then jumped into the scuffle and grabbed on to the other's hair.
The two of them went back and forth for minutes, tightly gripping each other's hair as they tried to stay grounded with their bare feet on the floor.
Several men and women joined the melee as US Customs and Border Protection officers attempted to break up the mayhem.
Suitcases and personal belongings were thrown around during the chaotic scene.
At one point, a man was seen holding a stanchion over his head as people screamed.
After a couple of minutes the fight was broken up and people were seen trying to carry on with their day.
It remains unclear what sparked the fracas, but the violent disagreement was between two families, the Miami-Dade Sheriff's Office (MDSO) told the Daily Mail.
No one was arrested after neither of the parties decided to press charges against the other, cops said.
As a result of the brawl 16 people have been placed on Carnival Cruise Lines' 'Do Not Sail List', a company spokesperson told the Daily Mail.

I don’t usually contribute to discussions on this subject, but it’s time for people to admit that pattern recognition is not racism.
The statistics do not lie.
Blacks are claiming that Karmelo Anthony was justified in killing Metcalf because black people have a different “space” than white people and the white person intruded on that “space”. And that the white person should have known black people have a different “space”. You want racism? The black people saying that are the racists.
“Are “they” allowed to bring their weed stash onto a Carnival Cruise?”
No and there are dog sniffing drugs walking around before they board and on the ships.
Drug sniffing dogs now on Carnival Cruises

YES!
The Bahamas are a foreign country. Purchases there are subject to import duty (taxes) ... don't try to BS the Customs Officers. They know ...

Humans are very good at pattern recognition. It’s a positive survival trait, which I endeavor to refine in my life.
Humans are also very good at embracing delusion and self-deception. Humans who exhibit those traits often get upset with those of us who cultivate pattern recognition in our lives.
The truth is never racist.
All of the above are incorrect. Ghettopottami is the proper term.
I've heard of dogs that sniff for drugs ... drugs that sniff for dogs are a curious thing ...
😊
Ok, out of all the replies, this one actually made me laugh. +10for effort.
Where do they think they are, Chuck E Cheese on baby daddy Saturday?
And funnily enough ... segregated events and ceremonies.
The decent blacks also notice the patterns.
They do ... and in candid moments, they may admit to hating the troublemakers even more than white folks do.
Just watch the Chris Rock routine, that audience knew exactly what he was talking about.
Who? Those rowdy Scandinavians again? /s
...
Grand Closing!!!
The video we're talking about ... for the benefit of the kiddies who have never heard ...
So you believe that it’s not racist to refer to black Americans fighting as “chimp-outs”?
I’d say it’s a safe bet that the phrase “chimp-out” is used almost exclusively when referring to fights involving black Americans.
And “chimp-out” is meant to do something pretty substantial - equate black Americans as akin to chimps or other lower order primates.
Who is “they”?
The data is the data. I have wrote that numerous times in the past.
And ecological fallacy is ecological fallacy.
Some black Americans do not speak for all black Americans.
