Last week I started my 23rd year of teaching. Today was the first day in those 22+ years that I can recall a fight occurring in my class.
It's such low-class behavior.
Fortunately the new, mellower me didn't overreact, and after the students were removed from class I was able to return the class to normal rather quickly. Yes, they really wanted to go nuts and talk about it and do anything but classwork, but I'm not there to run a gossip factory. Moments later everyone was back at work.

That was my second day last year. Glad you got it handled.
