The Fight Club were a group of detention students whom Gary Chalmers supervised when he was a teacher.
History
Chalmers referred to the group of students as "The Breakfast Club". However, the students informed him that he was in the wrong room and they were actually The Fight Club. The students then ganged up on Chalmers and beat him up.
Behind the Laughter
