A California woman waiting in line at a Popeyes drive-thru to get her hands on the fast-food restaurant’s popular chicken sandwich captured a fight between two couples on Saturday night.
The viral video, shared by Gigi Drummond on Facebook, has been viewed more than 1 million times.
“Decided to get Popeye’s chicken sandwich for my son — we got front row seats to ‘Saturday Nihght [sic] Fights,'” Drummond captioned the series of videos.
The brawl reportedly took place after two couples got into a verbal altercation while waiting in their cars in the drive-thru at the Temecula restaurant.

NEW YORK MAN CLAIMS TO HAVE FOUND JOINT IN POPEYES CHICKEN SANDWICH
Drummond said a man in a white car became frustrated with an incorrect order, according to KFMB. The unidentified man said he had been waiting for more than an hour and refused to come inside to have the order fixed.
Another man in a black car behind the disgruntled customer honked his horn “really loudly,” she said, which prompted the man in the white car to exit his vehicle and begin shouting at the man and his wife.
The video clips posted to Drummond’s Facebook page captured the fight escalating to a physical encounter, in which both men and their female companions throw punches, and at some point, tumble to the ground in an all-out brawl.
