Definition
A noisy fight, argument, or drinking party; a rowdy or chaotic event or brawl.
Etymology
Possibly from Irish surname 'Branagan,' though the exact origin is debated; entered American slang in the early 1900s, particularly in urban East Coast areas.
Kelly Says
Brannigan is one of those wonderfully obscure American slang words that faded from common use—you'll find it in old 1920s newspaper reports of barroom fights, but almost nobody under 50 uses it anymore, making it perfect for vintage dialogue.
