News Another Fight at Magic Kingdom

Another big brawl at MK a few days ago, this time over a PhotoPass opportunity in the main entrance. One arrest, one very bloodied guy. Viewer discretion advised for the video in the article.

Walt Disney World fight video: Brawl at Magic Kingdom started over photo op disagreement

A day wasn't so magic for two families at Walt Disney World's Magic Kingdom after an apparent disagreement over a photo op led to punches and an all-out fight.

So the "second family" appears to be entirely to blame.
This is why I have a bit of a problem when I hear calls to throw all groups involved in a fight out.
And I am vehemently against fighting. Especially in the parks.

All I can think about in these situations are the poor kids who have to live with these type of violent people.

Those kids might've got up that morning thinking that was the day they were going to Magic Kingdom ... and the 'adults' ruined it.

I wonder what the common denominator could be?!

The stress of a Disneyparks vacation maybe?

Folks pay a lot of money at perhaps the one and only shot at that perfect Disneyparks vacation.

There is a lot stress to achieve that perfect Disneyparks vacation

No amount of Disney “stress” excuses or explains such behaviour.

This was the entrance of the park.
Family one was getting their picture taken - looks like by PhotoPass - and family two got in the shot and had not only no respect for what was going on, but actually decided to get physical about it.

I'm certain that the children of family two are used to the supposed adults ruining lots of things.
There is no way this is a first time.

Stress is a normal part of life. I'm stressed at work but you don't see me beating up coworkers or students. I'm stressed at home but you don't see me beating my husband or family. I get stressed when I'm grocery shopping and someone is blocking the aisle or the store isn't stocked sufficient but you don't see me beating up the customer or employees. Get a grip.

I did not mean to stress you. I was just offering a possible suggestion of a common denominator.

I am not making an excuse for anyone's behavior I was just bringing up a possible common denominator, that's all.

As for the entrance of the park, who doesn't get excited; adrenaline pumping; the start of the perfect park day, etc.

Personally, I keep my expectations as low as possible so if anything good at all happens, it's a win for me.

Unfortunately there’s a pretty high likelihood they’ll also learn to copy this in their own life. Some will escape this behavior but many will just think this is the “normal” way to solve problems.

Not only are the “adults” stealing their childhood but they’re also training them to be bad adults.

You're 100% correct unfortunately.

Geez. I was telling everyone at work after I returned from my March trip how everyone was well-behaved. Sad that was what stuck out to me during my last trip. I'll be back in about two weeks and hopefully I will not see or experience any of this.

Disney should setup a ring this way we can have a proper fight.

Sorry, not in this example…if you’re gonna have a meltdown, shouldn’t you wait until AFTER you enter the park?? I mean, most people lose it AFTER waiting in a line.

 

[DonniePeverley]

To be honest that was quite a dull confrontation. Move on.

 

[StaceyH_SD]

How do you get in a fight with somebody before you even get to Main Street? Also, I would have pressed charges.

In a world where sociopaths can succeed beyond your wildest dreams, the riffraff may have plenty of cash.
