Jackson Jambalaya

I see Rankin County was well-represented at the parade.

WHAT?! An event populated by drunk pieces of shit and a fight breaks out?? No way!

Awesome. That St. Paddy's parade is a real jewel in Jackson's crown.

It's the perception of fighting that is the problem...

I'm sick of watching people who don't know how to fight and all cops can do is sucker punch drunk kids.

Jackustan needs to put more emphasis on the class of the creative class.

Where is Jerry Springer when you need him?

Roach (4:54 PM), it IS all about the perception! I say, "Let them eat cake!"........

Looks like a freak show came to Jackson???

Inbred white trash.

Maybe the Sweet Potato Queens really did class the place up!

Wait, people fought at a public event where there were thousands of people and alcohol? You are kidding? Right?

SXSW is a great event - I just watched a video of fight that happened there. This isn't that big of a deal. It happens. Our family had a nice time at the parade.

These are the people Malcomb White brings to Jackson with his little green umbrella and dancin' shoes.

BRIGANECK!!!

I'm soooo seeing a reality show premise here..."So You Think You Can Be a Redneck Kung Fu Fighting Real Housewife Kardashian?"

After what I read in the UK papers about those sluts, I think mentioning Kardashian on this site may be a bannable offense.

Wonder if anyone pinched big girl for not wearing green?

Yet, people continue to push for more sales of alcohol because it will enhance the community.

Big girl putting the hammer-fist down, the white trash force is strong in this one. It's a fun event, not supposed to be Sesame Street, to each his own. Stay home if you don't like it.

4:44 sounds like the typical Jackson apologist. "Get out of town if you don't like what Jackson has become". OK, why not, thousands have. "Don't come to town if you are afraid". OK, millions don't.

appeared to be post parade pre magoo's fun. The walrus not in green was just lovely. I think I recognized everyone from Thedirty.com

What kind of gentleman hits a girl?

@8:03, I assumed that was a lesbian. No?

It's heartwarming to see that, despite its past, Jackson has become a place where people of all races are free to act like violent jackasses.

it appears all the participants are white folks; and you know, very few white folks live in Jackson. Therefore, these individuals may very well be "visitors" from Madison and/or Rankin County.

I was in New Orleans this Saturday for the Irish Channel parade with thousands more viewers and participants and buckets more alcohol consumed per person, less police presence was noticed...and not one fight was seen on Magazine Street. Alcohol cannot be the only cause of this type behavior. Boredom? Bad "national chain" food?

no fights in the channel? Damn. That's saying something.

Does anyone know what Krewe this was? It sounds like this group failed to patrol its own.

Oh, my fellow citizens (and/or adoring Kingfish fans): it's while reading the running commentary on posts like these that we must draw back, and rejoice that there is still humor on this dull sublunary orb.

Delightfully trashy, fat, scantily-clad sluts duking it out is...FUNNY. I see no reason to make this a discussion of Jackson's inevitable down-marketing---it was bound to happen---why can't we all just "get along"??? I betcha good $$ there were some Madison County peeps standing on the sidelines, enjoying it all, wondering nervously, as well they might: "when will this start happening in our sacred precinct?"

Answer: "eventually". This is Mississippi, and you can run, but you cannot hide. Embrace it and laugh!

what am I missing....isn't the person that takes the first swing at the beginning of the clip a dude?

i think we are considering said dude to be a bitch for striking a woman

Does anyone know what Krewe this was?

Krewe of Mucho Glazed Donuts.

if it was a man, he needs to go down. if it was a woman, then the dude that threw beer on her needs to go down.

extra points to the lady that kept trying to break the up one-handed while not spilling her drink

Regarding no fights on Magazine Street: horsecrap. Saw one right in front of me, two grown men fighting over beads. Didn't last long, no police involved, but it did happen.

I reckon there might have been more, but folks were too worried about getting hit in the head with cabbage to take time to fight.

If they would schedule the Pelahatchie Muscadine Festival on the same day as Mal's Parade we would not have these issues. All the clowns, knuckle draggers, mouth breathers and others with 81 IQs would stay home in Pelahatchie, stomp grapes and give the finger to the freight train passing through. It's all about planning. Axe Ben.

So when are we going to see video footage of the 12 person fight that happened at old trace park in Madison County on St. Patty's Day. Why does Jackson have to have all the fun with the negative coverage in this instance where the same thing has occurred in other parts of the metro area as well.

35-50 year old lesbians from Pelahatchie duking it out over a sweet-thang is NOT a video of white youth fighting. Get a grip, Kingfisher.
