"Black Friday Bedlam\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n1. Waffle Riot\nWe've heard of Bread Riots, Pussy Riots and even Quiet Riots. But this, my friends, is a Waffle Riot. Anarchy reigns as this crowd of Walmart shoppers struggles to get their hands on some $2 waffle irons. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n2. Towel Tussle\nWhich do you think was worse: the struggle to get these cheap towels or their friends' and family members' disappointed looks with cheap towel gifts?\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n3. Fightin' Words\nHistorical trends dictate that people who wear leather jackets tend to be much tougher and more intimidating than the rest of us (maybe). Anyway, check out how this guy goes all ad baculum on a crowd of people outside a Best Buy, when they complain about him cutting the line. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n4. Pepper Spray Spree\nBack to Walmart, where a woman in Los Angeles used pepper spray on a crowd of people, including children, to get her hands on a new Xbox. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n5. Brawl at the Mall\n\nCan we get Jerry \"The King\" Lawler and Jim Ross to provide some commentary on this royal rumble? \nThe quality of this video is extremely shoddy, but it contains some pretty shocking footage.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n6. Dramatization\nHere's what the last clip might have looked like if the videographer had a steadier hand.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n7. Bloody Grandpa\n\nThis grandpa is badly bloodied after police officers tackled him. The police believed the man to be a shoplifter. \nThis raw smartphone footage gives an even better look at the incident, but be forewarned, it includes explicit language. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n8. The Peanut Gallery\nYou won't find shocking violence in this video, but check out the crowd of people who aren't even there to shop, just to film.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n9. Urban Outfitters \nUrban regions are often over-populated, but at midnight on Black Friday, this Urban Outfitters crams in so many people it looks more like a New York tenement house during the 1860s. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n10. In Conclusion\nHere's a mashup from Jingle All the Way in which Arnold, the great thespian that he is, manages to perfectly capture the plight of the Black Friday shopper. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBy now, we've all heard the Black Friday horror stories. The cast of characters is always the same: stampeding shoppers, pushy patrons and bellicose bargain-hunters. \nAlong with great deals, the post-Thanksgiving shopping \"holiday\" can bring out consumers' more agressive natures. Before you foray into the retail free-for-all, check out the videos in the gallery above. You might think twice about leaving the house. \nImage courtesy of iStockphoto, alashi\nBONUS: 10 Black Friday Deals You Can't Afford to Miss\n\n\n10 Black Friday Deals You Can't Afford to Miss\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n1.
