All right, here's a poll.

How many of you had a gang brawl break out in your park?

We had one, I'll tell the story later, just wondering on statistics.

It's happened at DL. Last year during Grad Nites, one broke out in front of my location which ended with one of our CMs being knocked out cold, and Security flooding the area. This was before I hired in, so I'm going on what I've heard. Your mileage might vary.

Now, are we KBF? Not by a longshot, but it does happen.

EDIT: *proceds to hide post from GP's virgin eyes* :p:

There were also a few shooting and knife incidents during the 80s inside the park between Samoan and Tongan gangs. I read it in one of those (unofficial, of course) guides to Disney history.

Well, In Downtown Disney Westside there was almost a scuffle when security would not let in the group of teens into the area. I asked what was going on, as it almost looked like a stand-off near the parking area, and the cop laughingly said, "Ah, just kids being young and stupid!" It was pretty funny.

Had a stabbing in the parking garage at Universal - and a shooting at Wet n' Wild (both non-fatal). Aren't kids fun?!

Just a couple of kids in line, having a spat.

Wait, I was looking at the age of their maturity, not their physical age...

Grad Night... LAUSD So. Central schools.... oh, the humanity.


If you ever stop and ask yourself: "How do they dress themselves?"
Congratulations and welcome to my world.
