"promoted event" -- are they suggesting the fighting was promoted? What is this, OC Fight Club?

(The first rule of fight club is there is no fight club....)

The photos on their website are disgusting. Why is this kind of behavior allowed by the law enforcement in OC? Who owns this place?

Great job allied police agencies!!!

I am still proud of the Wicomico County Sheriffs Office!!!

I believe this place is owned by the Gibb family who also own the Dough Roller restaurants.

The place may stink since it is located next to the OC sewage treatment plant but I could not find any photos on their site good enough to earn them a "disgusting" label.

I can tell ya that i was there last night and it was off the hook. There was fights everywhere, people acting like animals, there were cops everywhere trying to do there best man. I felt bad for them. They would get the inside to stop the fights and theyd go at it outside. I took my wife there from Pocomoke and ill never go back. It was real nasty! I seen a dude laying on the ground getting locked up by the cops and he was bleeding bad. Not sure what happened with him but i think he hit a cop or something cause he was bleeding bad. They had cop dogs looking like they was about to eat someone or anything that was next to. Castaways didnt even have no good bouncers like other places i been. Real bad place man, recipe for disaster.

5:49 I agree. It is disgusting and I don't know how they get away with this kind of behavior. I am surprised that the liquor board doesn't shut them down. Maybe this will be the straw that breaks the back.

Ok someone help me understand why the photos are disgusting....Ive just been on the website and I don't see anything that I believe would be considered disgusting. I see pictures of young people have a good time.

So let me get this straight. You arrest 4% of the crowd and that fixes the problem?

This was a promoted event that happend to be held at Castaway's. The security was brought in and was not that of Castaway's. The establishment was being used for the night by outside promoters (clothing line out of DC and music company.) It is unfortunate that the evening turned, but as Secrets and Fagers have experienced these types of outbreaks, it is what can happen when you are packed and alcohol is involved.....

Joe Post a link to Castaways getting closed by Liquor Board.

So is anyone gonna mention the fact that the liquor control board revoked Castaways license last week and fined them $4000?

I guess if theres no porn being made its not a story?

What about the raid on Pickles Pub in downtown Ocean City which netted 11 arrests for underage drinking. Once again, no porn.


GOD BLESS AMERICA! LOL
