And you thought Duke-UNC was intense
As far as I know, neither team's fans has ever conked an opposing player in the head with a flare. And neither the Dean Dome nor Cameron has ever been set on fire after a disputed call.
But in Milan, where Inter and AC Milan carry out a blood feud in soccer? That's another story.
These are the sort of incidents I use as ammo whenever I run across Europeans who try to tell me how uncivilized Americans are.
I'm still looking for the link to an earlier incident involving irate Inter Milan fans. I'll post it when I come across it, but here's a sneak preview - it involves hooligans, a motor scooter, fire, and the second deck of the stadium.

It's all fun and games until you get hit in the head with a flaming Vespa.
And we AC Milan fans have been calling Inter Milan fans thuggish hooligans for years. There's your proof.

Does anyone actually have a picture of that famous flaming Vespa? No one here in NYC believes me when I tell them about it.
