Hospital Waiting Room Nightmare

I'm in a nightmare. Truly. I'm sitting in the only surgical waiting room at the Matagorda Regional Medical Center, waiting to be called for some pre-op work, and a group of 13 people, including 2 screaming infants, has taken over all but 3 of the chairs in here, spread food and drinks over the magazine tables and floor, and are whooping it up loudly. You can hear them from one end of the hall to the other. How rude! They have a relative in surgery, but apparently their waiting room party is their concern, not their patient or the other people on the waiting room (2 of whom are awaiting post-surgery reports on their loved ones) are having to stand because there are no chairs available for them). RUDE!!!!!! 

I reported the group party when I was called for my tests.  When I returned, the party was over and the party-goers were gone.  Coincidence?  Asked to leave?  Whatever happened, it was a good thing.
