Video footage of the incident that involved about 10 to 15 people, some of whom wore swimsuits and masks, showed the group engaged in a “minutes-long fight spanning a corridor inside the Hard Rock hotel,” according to Fox News.

A bystander recorded video of the brawl which was viewed 5 million times as of Tuesday.

In the first video, two men kicked another man wearing red shorts as he lay on the ground. Once he got up, he kept fighting and a man in the striped shirt knocked him to the ground as the other wearing a purple jersey kicked him also.

Moments later, the man in the striped shirt pushed a woman in white to the ground, but she got back up and began fighting with another woman nearby.

Bystanders appeared to try and stop the fight, but the woman wearing white grabbed the man in the purple jersey and began hitting him while others tried to stop them.

When the man in red shorts hit them with a metal rope barrier, hotel employees and others tried to separate him from the group. A security officer then appeared on screen as an employee tried to stop two other women from fighting.

Once police reviewed surveillance video, they arrested three people involved in the incident, according to the South Florida Sun-Sentinel.

“All the fighters have been banned from the Hard Rock,” the article noted, adding that it was not clear what sparked the fight.

Although some of those involved did not have on a mask, the hotel’s website said guests must wear a mask or face covering that meets the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s (CDC) guidelines.

“A face covering over your nose and mouth must be worn at all times except when actively eating, drinking or smoking while seated and physically distanced,” the site read.

The head of Hard Rock International – which runs the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in Tampa – thinks it's going to take at least a year until his company's business gets back to normal.

Jim Allen is Chairman and CEO of the Seminole Tribe of Florida's gaming company.

He told CNBC Wednesday that they're looking forward to reopening their hotels, casinos, and restaurants after COVID-19 forced them to shut down. Hard Rock owns properties in 76 countries worldwide.

“As we look to the future, we’re starting to see a little bit of daylight, and we’re hopeful that as we get towards the end of May and into June, that we’ll start seeing the opening many of our locations on a global basis,” said Allen.

Allen said some people get excited when things like beaches reopen, but he acknowledged that customers are likely going to be shy about visiting hotels and casinos any time soon.

“While we see a ramp up, when we see the beaches in Jacksonville as crowded as they were, that seems like that’s kind of exciting, but I think that’s just the initial get-out-of-the-house, if you will,” he said. “I think there's going to be a real challenge, especially here in the United States, as far as ramping the business back up, and frankly, we're planning on that taking at least a year.”

Allen pointed to one of their Chinese properties as an example of people’s reluctance. The Shenzhen Hotel reopened about a month ago; Allen said current occupancy is at only 12 percent.

Allen also said they’re looking at protective methods they’ll take when they reopen. They’ll also adjust them according to state, local or national guidelines.

“From a casino standpoint, we learned a lot the last 30 days we were open. We were already doing much more than social distancing,” said Allen. “One slot machine was on, four were off. We were only allowing three individuals at a gaming table.”

Going forward, Allen said they’ll likely use thermal imaging and temperature checks for customers and employees to make sure everyone is safe.

“That may come at an additional cost, and I think that’s just unfortunately part of this pandemic that we have to navigate through,” he said.

Hard Rock came under fire for keeping its Seminole locations in Florida open in March for days after other businesses had shut down. At the time, company officials said they wanted to protect the livelihood of their nearly 14,000 employees without jeopardizing public safety.

They finally closed on March 20.

Allen said they've re-extended benefits to employees through June and are offering additional assistance, including giving gift cards for groceries every other week to workers making less than $50,000 a year.

“This is something that’s a real challenge and we think it’s important to make sure we keep our staff as safe as possible as we start to slowly think about re-opening.”
