Garata con puño

A chaotic free-for-all or a mad scramble where a group of people fights to grab something for themselves. It describes a situation that turns into a melee once someone shouts the phrase, causing everyone to start shoving and pulling to get their share.

Garata con puño happens a lot at birthday parties with piñatas, where kids fight each other to get the most candy. You also see it in the government when everyone who supported a party wants high ranking positions and they start arguing and fighting over jobs.
