I've been in a few, and everything above about how they suck, even for the winner, are true. Worst one was an actual HTG gang brawl - I was working security at a private party thrown by a cambodian comunity group, demographic was about one third normal people, one third older people, and one third gang banger. Shit, I didn't even know we had gangs around here. Any way, the fight started because one large group of about thirty guys from kansas city got pissed at a similar group from here. Alcohol was consumed in monumental quantities, tempers flared, and one incredibly stupid individual from K.C. began screaming obscenities at the largest members of the other group- by running up to them and screaming directly in their faces- the third guy he subjected to this treatment calmly socked him in the jaw, and then proceeded to stomp him into a pulp- this is not an exageration or turn of phrase- NEVER hit the ground in a fight- i cannot stress this enough, having seen what a boot realy does to the human face, ribs and anything else it stomps/kicks- at about this moment I noticed that the loudmouth's friends were now charging toward the other group- and I was standing in the middle. This was the moment that I realized that (1) I was realy being underpaid (2) what looks cool in big trouble in little china is utterly terrifying in reality. The whole thing lasted all of thirty seconds- I was not punched once, just slammed into a lot- nor did I punch anyone, instead i tended to throw them into/shove them into others- I was not part of either group and so not anyones primary target, fortunately. the fight ended when a bystander emptied a whole can of pepper spray into the crowd- that was also the only time I have been pepper sprayed- I do not recomend it- everyone scattered after that to avoid the cops, except for the loudmouth who started it, who had to be rushed to the ER, and a few people with minor fist/ bottle induced injuries. Incidentaly, this was also the last time that I worked for that particular employer, as many of those present were packing guns, and it was only luck that prevented any from using them....
