on the high seas en route to visiting exotic destinations with hopes of creating vivid memories. Until the fights break out.
It’s not like the occasional argument that escalates into fisticuffs is relegated to one particular cruise line—and there are plenty, from Disney Cruise Line to Royal Caribbean International to Norwegian Cruise Line, and so and so forth.

Apparently, the universal beatdown occurred at the disembarkation point in Galveston, Texas. A couple of men in white seem to be the main combatants but then others join in.

This battle on the high seas, reportedly on the Carnival Sunrise, featuring wigs and weaves, was allegedly sparked over a lounge chair. It couldn’t have been that comfortable beloved. Also it looks like a dude was wailing on a woman, which is bitchasness personified.
