Carnival cruising bruising
‘Threesome’melee
This threesome rocked the boat.
A wild brawl that erupted on the dance floor of a Big Apple-bound Carnival cruise ship was sparked by jealousy over a ménage à trois, according to a report.
The chaotic fight broke out among roughly 60 people near the Verrazano-Narrows Bridge on Tuesday when significant others accused their partners of cheating in a threesome, passenger Theresa James told Fox News Digital.
The skirmish started in a nightclub on the fifth floor of the Carnival Magic ship at around 2 a.m. after the angry lovers confronted their respective partners for two-timing on the seven seas, according to James, a travel agent who watched the fracas from her room.
The brawlers then began shoving each other and smashing beer bottles, and a woman may have been sliced during the melee, which quickly spiraled out of control, James said.
“Ignorant fools acting stupid,” she said.
The dust-up lasted roughly an hour and spilled into the casino area on the same level of the ship, she said.
The scrum of fighters eventually moved from the fifth floor to the first, and the altercation wasn’t physical the whole time, James said.
The ship’s security team tried to break up the fight, James said, and eventually called the US Coast Guard.
‘Out of nowhere’
She credited security guards with finally getting
the unhinged passengers under control.
Another passenger, tweeting under the handle @nyeem0, said he was “at the bar listening to my own music sipping a Shirley Temple, then the brawl broke out of nowhere!”
He said some passengers were “injured and cut up from glass” and that “most if not all’” of the ship’s security guards rushed to the club to stop the violence.
“It was the last night so i guess they wanted to go out with a bang,” he added.
