The Big Guy
Fear the Blitz
What possibly goes thru the mind of someone when they pick up a chair and throw in towards a crowd of people? Is there a single thing that could go right at that moment?

All bets were off after a massive, chair-hurling brawl broke out Friday night at the grand opening of a Fat Tuesday New Orleans-style daiquiri bar inside the Resorts World Casino in Queens, officials said.
Up to 400 people were involved in the 10 p.m. brawl at the four-year-old Ozone Park casino next to Aqueduct Racetrack.
An eye-popping video of the fight shows patrons hurling chairs across the room at each other and swinging gold stanchions as if they were swords. “A lot of gang members (were involved),” a police source said.
Chairs were thrown in the 400-person fight Friday night, video showed."why are people going nuts at the new location?" someone asked Fat Tuesday via Twitter.
"in New York?" the clueless company responded an hour and a half after the fight unfolded.
Multiple police units were mobilized at the Queens casino after a huge fight broke out, authorities said.
The dining area at the Vegas-style gambling hall was left in tatters from the ruckus, which went on for several minutes as melees and score-settling erupted in pockets throughout the food court.
The fight erupted inside near the daiquiri franchise shortly after it opened, but quickly spilled to an outside parking lot.
A handful of people, including cops and security guards, suffered injuries, officials said. Cops arrested four people at the scene.
Charges were pending, cops said.
The racino opened in October, 2011 after a decade of controversial false starts and blowback from the critics.
The fight isn't the first time that all hell has broken loose at the relatively new racino
Several security personnel were injured.
Less than six months after opening a brazen thief slipped a note to a teller and walked away with $63,000 in cash.
In November, a crook followed an 88-year-old gambler all the way to his house, 10 miles from the betting parlor, and robbed him of $1,000 in prize money.
And in February, a gambling granny locked her 5-year-old granddaughter in her car while she hit the slots.
