Lakers Fans Brawl At Kindergarden Graduation


Usually, I'm not surprised that much when I post stuff here on this site but even this story is rather hard to believe.

During a kindergarden graduation at Puesta del Sol Elementary School, one women was arrested and nearly twenty people got into a brawl. What over you may ask? A Facebook comment regarding the Los Angeles Lakers.

We get more from the Victoriaville Press:

A disparaging remark on Facebook about the Los Angeles Lakers sparked Wednesday’s brawl involving some 20 adults at a local kindergarten graduation, according to one participant.

“This all started because of a Facebook comment between this other woman and my grandmother about the Lakers,” said Queiona Burt, 31, one of the women arrested following a brawl that broke out at a recent Puesta del Sol Elementary School kindergarten graduation. “But I want to apologize to the school and the community and say this is not what I’m about. I was trying to defend myself.”

Burt and Marina Vargas, 29, of Hesperia, were both arrested for being a disruptive presence at a school, but Burt alleges she was attacked by Vargas and several other people. San Bernardino County Sheriff ’s Victorville station officials couldn’t confirm Burt’s story.

According to Burt, she, her 3-year-old son and a friend were outside the cafeteria where the ceremony was being held when she was approached by Vargas.

Burt said they began to argue about the comments made by Vargas and Burt’s grandmother on Facebook when Vargas allegedly attacked her.

The friend stated Vargas and several other people then began to attack Burt, grabbing her by her leg and dragging her across the field.
For those of you that need visual stimulation, here is KCAL's report on the story:



Next time, I go to a kindergarden graduation, I'll make sure to bring Ron Artest.
