A huge brawl broke out during a Padel match in Costa Rica. Now, that video is going viral on social media.

It reportedly happened in Escazu, Costa Rica. Padel appears to be a game similar to other racket sports like Pickleball and Tennis. Hopefully their Padel game is better than their fighting because there were a lot of swing and misses during this fight. It wasn't pretty. Check out the viral video for yourself below.

Brawl Breaks Out During Costa Rica Padel Match

That video was shared by @CollinRugg on X (formerly Twitter). It's captioned, "NEW: Group of men start hitting each other with their Padel rackets after getting into an argument in Escazu, Costa Rica. The music makes this so much funnier. One man was seen falling to the ground after failing to land a punch. The establishment where the incident occurred has since responded in a statement to crhoy.com. "The swift intervention of club staff prevented more serious consequences...In cases of violence, those involved may face disciplinary sanctions ranging from warnings and temporary suspensions to expulsion from the club or tournament."

He makes a good point, the music certainly does add to it and makes it even funnier somehow. Then, you add all the misses during the fight and that probably explains why it's going so viral online. Racket sports aren't known for being violent or physical but that doesn't mean things can't end up going that way!

Cort Freeman was born and raised in Metro Detroit. He was named Clarkston High School 2009 Class Clown 13 years after graduating. Totally normal thing to happen. That’s thanks to his time spent as an Intern at Comedy Central and Social Media Correspondent for The Colbert Report. Cort has done comedy across the country, both standing up and sitting down. When he’s not trying to make you laugh on-air and online, he’s probably at home enjoying his favorite shows like Seinfeld, South Park, and The Office. He’s also totally uncomfortable writing about himself in the third person. Cort enjoys writing about comedy, food, sports, and entertainment. So, basically anything and everything.
