News, but not the serious kind

These folks throwing punches at each other are:

  • Hillary Clinton supporters whomping on elitists
  • South Korean lawmakers, in session
  • Battlestar Gallactica fans arguing over the fifth Cylon
  • Spectators at a Davis Cup tennis match

Yeah, I was shocked by this one, but it is indeed tennis fans. Their scuffle was  possibly the most unexpected violence since that outburst at the Boston Pops.  What started it? A dispute over the proper length of a Bloody Mary celery stalk.

Argentina? They were pissed because they thought they were buying tickets to a football match.
