'The owner of the house gets involved, and he probably wished he hadn’t. At this point, he’s up against nearly the whole Palin tribe: Palin women screaming. Palin men thumping their chests,' Amanda Coyne wrote.



'Word is that Bristol has a particularly strong right hook, which she employed repeatedly, and it’s something to hear when Sarah screams, “Don’t you know who I am!” '



'As people were leaving in a cab, Track was seen on the street, shirtless, flipping people off, with Sarah right behind him, and Todd somewhere in the foreground, tending to his bloody nose.'

Anchorage police were called to the scene just before midnight, but no arrests were made.



‘Anchorage police responded to a report of a verbal and physical altercation taking place between multiple subjects outside of a residence,’ police spokesperson Jennifer Castro told Alaska Dispatch News.
