NEW YORK — A flight to Puerto Rico was diverted to John F. Kennedy Airport shortly after takeoff early Sunday because a fight broke out on board, officials said. Three women were questioned and one was briefly detained, FBI spokeswoman Christine Monaco said. The FBI was still investigating and would decide later whether charges would be filed, Monaco said.
It appeared that one woman had started a fistfight with the other two, said Steve Coleman, a spokesman for the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey, which operates the area's airports.
The fight took place on JetBlue Flight 561, which had taken off from Newark Liberty International in New Jersey and landed at JFK about an hour later, said airline spokeswoman Jenny Dervin. The plane took off again from JFK about an hour later with the remaining 147 passengers and six crew members, she said.

The fight began when one of the women, realizing she was mistakenly on a JetBlue flight, began to scream-
"I wanted to be on American, wanted to be on American!"

An hour from Newark to JFK? Those Airbus planes certainly are slow, aren't they.

They must have gotten the test results from the Maury Povich show just before boarding.

"The first rule of Mile High Fight Club is you do not talk about Mile High Fight Club. The second rule of Mile High Fight Club is you do not talk about Mile High Fight Club. Third rule of Mile High Fight Club, someone yells 'Stop!', goes limp, taps out, the fight is over. Fourth rule, only two passengers to a fight. Fifth rule, one fight at a time, folks. Sixth rule, no shirt, no shoes. Seventh rule, fights will go on as long as they have to. And the eighth and final rule, if this is your first flight on Mile High Fight Club, you have to fight."

I'm not all sure if this counts as being aviation related, but this post is just too plain funny not to ping you to this thread.
