Bride, groom arrested after brawl breaks out at downtown Edmonton bar
The bride and groom started married life in handcuffs.
The couple — she in a gown, he in a tuxedo — were arrested Saturday night after a post-wedding brawl broke out at Denizen Hall in downtown Edmonton.
Matt Machado watched it all go down at the bar near Rogers Place. It started, he said, when about nine members of a wedding party walked in at around 10 p.m.
He said it was like a scene from the Wild Wild West.
"They're getting drinks. They're just really, really super banged up," he said.
"And then all of a sudden we see the smoke pit doors just, like, blow open. Like, you know, in the old Western movies, when a big fight happens and the doors just explode open and everybody piles out? Then security's got this one guy in a headlock and they tumble down the stairs.
"The bride is just like following behind, just swinging."
And that will be quite the story to tell the grandkids.
