The same thing happens when there is a major <you name it> contest .....
The CW guys say the SSB guys run rampant all over the band ......
And the CW guys say the CW contesters run rampant all over the band .....
The QRP guys say that when ever there is a non-QRP event on the band ....

It's hard to restrict the "running rampant".  As more and more of us 
retire it
should be less and less of a problem on weekends!
