Federal agents busted up a major illegal cockfighting ring in Georgia over the weekend.
Officials say 178 people were found inside an “indoor arena” in Midville, GA that contained a fighting ring, bleachers, and a concession stand.
More than 800 roosters were seized along with guns, drugs, and tens of thousands of dollars in cash.
The 48-year-old owner of the property was arrested and faces felony animal fighting charges. All 178 in attendance could charges of animal cruelty and gambling.
Are you surprised by how large the crowd was? What do you think they sold at the concession stand?
