Cops Probe IHOP Melee Caught On Tape
The Smoking Gun website ^ | 1/25/11 | Smoking Gun

JANUARY 25--South Carolina cops are attempting to identify the participants in a wild brawl early Saturday at an International House of Pancakes, video of which has gone viral online.

As seen in the below clip--which includes some cursing--the female combatants are seen punching and wrestling with each other as tables are toppled. At one point, a woman picks up a coffee pot and strikes another woman in the head while she is being pinned to a table. Later, a man is seen swinging a cane at the woman who was struck with the coffee pot. The woman, adopting a lion tamer’s pose, picks up a chair and tosses it at the cane wielder.

Third or fourth one that’s been in the news in the last week. In all three, the perps had the same profile (all black, mostly female).

Sounds like some sort of flash-brawl thing being organized on Facebook, but I haven’t heard anything to that effect yet.

Is it just me, or is this really pretty funny, especially all the people vying for good camera angles?

Okay, THAT part was funny. The actual fight was a disgrace.

And despite the restaurant having been wrecked by the brawlers, security and management “did not want to pursue any charges on the incident,” according to a sheriff's report.

Why wouldn't the restaurant pursue charges against the combatants?

My Grandma had a saying about behavior like this that would no longer be considered politically correct.

Where did the guy get the thing that looks like a crowbar?

That was a cane he uses to convince any PI's who are watching him on behalf of his employer (from whom he is receiving disability benefits) that he is still disabled.......

Nope. It was those Amish again, just like I figured.

It really wasn't that much of a guess, though. I live in SC, and see this type of behavior frequently among our Amish citizens.

It's why I won't go to Applebee's or Pizza Hut type restaurants. Can't CCW anyplace that serves alcohol, so I would be at a disadvantage to the jerk with the cane.
