A huge brawl on a Carnival cruise ship was captured on video with individuals fighting over chicken tenders in the dining area, the New York Post notes.
The report outlines how the melee erupted as the ship was returning to Miami on Monday, with dozens of passengers scrapping over the food.
The now viral footage shows the passengers wildly throwing punches and kicks at each other as security attempt to intervene but then think better of it.

Passenger Mike Terra filmed the chaos and confirmed that it all “basically started over chicken tenders.”
In a Facebook post, Terra wrote, “I always hear Carnival is ghetto/ratchet. I have been cruising for years, but this is my first time seeing some action on a ship I was on.”

This incident adds to a plethora of reports of similar events on other Carnival cruises that have led to the company introduced new passenger rules in June, essentially banning so called ‘ghetto behaviour’.
New rules such as no blasting music from Bluetooth speakers, no personal hand fans, no ‘boots on the ground’ line dancing, no rap music to name a few, have led to some asserting that the restrictions specifically target black customers in an effort to ward them off.

Aren’t there several cruise lines?
Why is it always Carnival?
What are they specifically doing wrong?

Carnival Cruise Line has become a magnet for black vacationers largely due to deep discounts on 3-5 day tickets.
Carnival Cruise Lines has literally become Frontier/Spirit Airlines on the water.
They had better do something or they will become bankrupt like Frontier and Spirit are heading into.

In 2015, the average cost per passenger was around $168 per night (more if you calculate today’s inflation). The cost was even higher depending on the ship and the destination.
In 2025 the average cost is as low as $50 per passenger per night. The damage done to travel related industries because of the pandemic lockdowns is often blamed for the price cuts.

The cruises have also garnered a reputation as a “block party” on the water with many black customers expecting some “rowdiness” as part of the experience.

You couldn’t pay me to take a cruise, however, if I did and saw gangs of ‘African’ Americans on board
