I was in San Francisco after their first Super Bowl. There were still riot police on the street on Tuesday. What about the riots in Chicago or LA when they won the NBA.

CSpenceFLY 1 #6 March 14, 2009 So there are fucking morons everywhere. The show I was watching was about Poland and I've seen way more evidence of this in other countries. Have you ever seen the fans in the US separated in the stands by fences? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There have been NHL riots in Montreal, Edmonton and Vancouver. Yes, after winning a championship, people get drunk, and drunk people do shit. But it's still a far cry from soccer hooligans, and I can't think of examples of fans stoning their players, or shooting them to death. Even the most die hard of fan/assholes (those in the end zone at the Raiders stadium) don't hold a candle to the typical soccer crazies. We just don't care that much.

MSU, 1999 - 5000 riot after game, riot police called, tear gas used, 130 convicted. Boston, 2004 - Thousands riot after World Series, riot police called, police shoot and kill a female rioter. MSU, 2005 - 2000 riot, riot police called, tear gas used. ========== From USA Today, 2004: By G. Jeffrey MacDonald, Special for USA TODAY Just five years ago, the nation watched in disbelief as students from Michigan State University performed what was then a shameful rarity in American sports: rioting at the outcome of a big game. Today, big games and riots go hand in hand far more often. There are 10 to 15 such incidents a year, and the outcomes are more tragic, says Kent State University sociologist Jerry Lewis, who has studied sports-related riots since 1960. In Boston this year, riots claimed the life of one college student after February's Super Bowl victory by the New England Patriots. Another student was killed in rioting last month after the Boston Red Sox beat the New York Yankees in the American League playoffs. With added police presence, celebrations after the Red Sox won the World Series last week proved less violent. Yet police still arrested 39 people, including 20 students. =========== Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
