I suspect it was when one realtor grabbed all but one of the cookies and told the next in line that immigrants wanted the remaining cookie.

I tracked down a version that wasn’t locked behind an age verification check (though it was on the Daily Heil website). The fight isn’t very spectacular and is shot in portrait mode.
Stay classy, Atlantic City.

Next up on nature channel: When Capitalism Attacks!
Although I’d disagree with the phrase “largely ineffective.” There were some solid punching going on there, and chairs swinging. Glad I’m not in the real estate business, it looks horrifying.

His opponent today. From the cold, steely depths of Wall Street; he eats steel and shits out the ash; ten time former heavy weight champion; the one, the only… theeeeeeeeee VULTURE CAPITALIST!

Serious? Fighting over… convention food?!
(Said as someone who’s had to attend many conferences and conventions in the before times. I miss the travel. I don’t miss the conventions. And I certainly do not miss the food.)

I was going there; but though that, “… at 6’ 6” and a hundred tons; the undisputed King of the Slums…" might not have meant much to many people; although it would have been more fitting for a real-estate story like this.
Maybe @SheiffFatman himself will be along in a bit?

It happened at 3 am. In a casino/hotel/convention center. I’m gonna go out on a limb and guess that alcohol might have played a role.

Forget the fighting…so many crimes against fashion!
