Just as we expected, Black Friday has taken a turn for fights and thanks to social media, there are pictures and videos circulating around the internet to prove it.
Here's one video of a couple of women fighting over a TV. Police quickly break it up but if you watch it, you'll still feel a deep sense of shame.
This fight is just the tip of the iceberg. Apparently Walmart was on the look out for people taking videos and many people were stopped from doing so. There were also fights at Kohl's and various other stores but #KohlsFights just doesn't have the same ring to it.
#WalmartFights I wonder why #NordstromFights isnt trending? Thoughts? Anyone... Anyone... Bueller?
— rosslafferty (@rosslafferty) November 29, 2013While the fights are embarrassing and totally unnecessary, we'll admit that the tweets have been somewhat entertaining.
Oh look. #WalmartFights is trending. The time has come. Cross the streams and blow up everything.

— Laura Spica (@lauraspica) November 29, 2013The first rule of #WalmartFights is don't hashtag your #WalmartFights.
— Michele Catalano (@inthefade) November 29, 2013I give it one more season until @Walmart just embraces #WalmartFights and turns it into a reality show.
— David Chartier (@chartier) November 29, 2013Even though #WalmartFights is trending on twitter, there are plenty of other positive happy hashtags also trending. Like #MentionSomebodyYoureThankfulFor or #SomeoneImThankfulFor or #Thankful.
I'm most #thankful for #WalmartFights
— Sal Guerrero (@SalDGuerrero) November 29, 2013There's nothing like seeing #MentionSomebodyYoureThankfulFor and #WalmartFights trending at the same time...
— Jack Stacey (@GretschPlayer56) November 29, 2013Have any Thanksgiving regrets? Like maybe you beat someone up on Thanksgiving at a Walmart?
