But an afternoon at wholesome Legoland turned sour on Saturday when witnesses described a 'vicious' mass brawl breaking out among parents queuing for a pirate ship ride. Police arrested two men after 'all hell broke loose' at the Berkshire theme park, where onlookers claimed one father grabbed a metal queue pole to use as a weapon during the ten-minute altercation. One shocked bystander told The Sun newspaper: 'About ten people were involved - even some of the women flew off the ride trading punches, and both the families had kids with them. 'You don't expect to see things like this at Legoland,' the parent said, adding that their 10-year-old son had never seen violence like it. The families involved were thrown out of the park and banned for life. Witnesses at the theme park's Jolly Rocker pirate ship ride suggested lengthy queues might have been what caused tensions to boil over. The ride was closed down for 20 minutes while the incident at around 4.15pm on Saturday was dealt with. Thames Valley Police confirmed it attended the Berkshire attraction on Saturday. Two men, aged 29 and 30, were arrested on suspicion of a public order offence. They were each given a fixed penalty notice, the force said. A spokeswoman for Legoland said the incident had not amounted to a brawl and denied that women were trading punches. She added: 'The Legoland team controlled the incident - police were not called in to break up the fight. We called them to assist with the two gentlemen in question.
