School choir performance EXPLODES into violent brawl between parents in dramatic video
Daily Mail UK ^ | May 14, 2025 | Will Potter

Shocking footage captured the moment parents exploded into a wild brawl after a children's choir concert in Texas.

The melee unfolded Monday at West Plains High School in Amarillo after students finished performing for their families.

Several parents were seen shoving each other in the hall, including one woman in a blue top who punched a man in the back of the head.

One man in a vest appeared to be at the center of the fight when it broke out, and he was held back by several others as he squared off with another man in a white t shirt.

When the man in the vest was pushed back against a wall, two other men then confronted him and pointed their fingers in his face.

A young boy who witnessed the outburst could be seen being comforted by his mother nearby as he was left in tears by the brawl.

The footage ended with the man in the vest speaking with other parents as the man he squared off with was escorted out by other witnesses.

The Amarillo Police Department told KAMR that a school administrator called the cops to make a report after the incident, but no arrests were made.

According to the Amarillo Police Department, none of the parents involved in the clash wanted to press charges after the fight was broken up.

It is not clear what ignited the brawl between the parents, however witness Michelle Murphy Lancaster took to Facebook after sharing the footage to explain what she saw.

Lancaster said one of her children participated in the choir performance, saying she pulled out her phone to record after 'hearing an altercation.'

Your daughter was singing B flat when it clearly should have been A sharp! Ruined the whole concert!

My bet is a divorce/custody dispute among parents who can’t stand each other but were both there for the concert.

That really just looked like a parent getting upset and moved out of the way. Not exactly a “melee.”

The second video in that package looked like a brawl.

People are nuts these days.

---- "B flat" "A sharp."

Probably sounded like "L."

No, surprisingly just some obese white Texans. That's the last thing that I would have expected. Too bad.

Since it was white folks, I’m gonna guess some liberal douche female objected to a MAGA hat.

Wouldn’t it be nice if stereotypes of the social contagion found in black urban cultures did not keep getting reinforced.
