Spring breakers go wild in chaotic footage of booze-soaked brawls, Savannah beach flooded with trash
Wild spring break parties unleashed chaotic scenes in Savannah, Ga., as violent, booze-fueled brawls broke out at the annual Orange Crush gathering.
The annual Tybee Island spring break bash saw numerous fights erupting among partygoers in shocking footage shared online.
What’s more, the popular beach can be seen flooded with tons of trash that was ultimately swept into the once-picturesque ocean in the small Georgia beach town.
In a clip shared on TikTok, the beach is seen littered with plastic and glass bottles and cups that spring breakers left behind.
Videos of the wild weekend circulated on social media, showing intoxicated revelers dancing to loud music and fighting.
In one clip posted on X, two women can be seen lunging at each other before exchanging brutal punches.
During the intense exchange, their clothing appears to have flown off.
The altercation sparked outrage among social media users, one of which asked, “When did Tybee Island become such a s–t show?”
As many as 50,000 college students inundate the small barrier island for the annual bash, which stretches along the 3-square mile island that boasts a population of about 3,000.
The festival gained a reputation in the 1990s for being out-of-control, leading Savannah State University to disassociate with the event in 1991 because of the high incidents of crime.
The event returned to Tybee Island last year for the first time since 2020.
Last year, former Tybee Mayor Shirley Sessions said in a statement that Orange Crush Festival “was admittedly too large and chaotic.”
“But at the end of the day, Tybee Island is fortunate that no lives were lost and no property destroyed,” Sessions said at the time, promising to introduce measures to keep it under control.
