They decked the halls — and each other.
A ritzy Nantucket Christmas celebration erupted into mayhem as men decked out in “Ralph Lauren and Burberry” traded blows just moments after Santa Claus made his appearance, according to shocking footage.
The wild brawl broke out on Federal Street Saturday afternoon during the Massachusetts island’s 51st Annual Christmas Stroll, where hundreds had gathered to visit local businesses in one of America’s priciest small towns, the Nantucket Current reported.
In dramatic video shared with the outlet, about a dozen men — ranging in age from 20s to 60s — were seen arguing and shoving each other in the middle of the street before breaking into small groups, where the aggression continued to escalate.
“All of the sudden there were two groups,” a witness told KISS108 on Tuesday.
“It was kind of like the Jets and the Sharks from West Side Story, only in Ralph Lauren and Burberry. It was 20-somethings versus like 60-somethings.”
In one group, a young brawler could be seen pushing an older gentleman. In another, a young slugger sucker-punched a man in a snazzy brown trench coat in the back of the neck, prompting another person to leap onto the attacker’s back, the chaotic video showed.
One of the scrappers was then thrown to the ground, as an older man charged after someone much younger and tried to land a punch — all while a black SUV sat in the middle of the road.

white people taking a few swings is ‘shocking’ yet the daily streams from the black community is the ‘new normal’ and encouraged
Christmas Stroll is just a commercial event to open seasonally closed shops for a week to top up coffers before winter. It used to be nice when it started in the 80s. It’s usually scheduled to compete with deer season so two different clientele are often present. Posers and hunters don’t mix well.
We save this behavior for funerals.
Yup

That’s embarrassing, those crackers don’t know how to brawl...
Was it a setup to show that it isn’t just a ‘them’ problem?
Wow! No people of color in the crowd. Where’s the celebration of diversity?
The maggots infesting our country have gone bananas. Pure evil. No wonder the freeloading, socialist piggies need the hardworking American taxpayers to feed their lard asses.
It is really bad reporting that the story can’t say why the fight broke out. The reporter had just one job: who, what, when. My theory is that the incessant hum from the offshore windmills that drove the liberal weenies mad.
When you're a Lauren you're a Lauren all the way

Flashmobs breaking out the music harmony?
But..but....aren't these the 'defund the police' crowd ?
We must stop dissing Obama and his sons.( sarc.)
That doesn’t look like a wild brawl. It looks like a Larry David situation.
Enlarge the picture. It was a mixed race rumble.
Disappointed that the author used the crude term “brawl”, when fisticuffs or a spirited disagreement would have been more apropos.
