If anything college football is worse. Rivalries there run deep, nearly as long as gridiron football has been played in many cases, and often come with family ties.
Combine that with its popularity in the south and the combination of honor culture and largely being dumbasses and theres almost always some fights before/during/after a big rivalry game in the ares where a visiting fan is close to or surrounded by the home team.
That said, its nothing like soccer riots.
- bbarn 11y agoI've only been to college games at Notre Dame and VT, and both of those are very segregated stadiums. There's an entire "student" section, a "visiting team" section, and tickets are sold like that.
- dpeck 11y agoThats right, the edges of sections or when a visitor finds himself surrounded by home fans is when things tend to get interesting. But again, its miniscule compared to soccer riots, usually one or two guys who have had too much start a conflict and security usually gets them out before anyone even pushes.
