As disgusting as this is, in many other countries, a lot of sports are life are death.  Am I agreeing with this, No Way!  But it still is the truth.  Soccer in Europe is similar.  I'm not saying if they lose, they are killed, but there have been incidents.  It was quite a few years ago and I don't remember exactly what country it was but I guy accidently scored a goal for the other team and his team ended up losing....later he was murdered by an angered fan.  Ridiculously disgusting just like this horse racing story but never the less, it's sadly true.

Yeah I remember that, that was Columbia, they killed that man while he was drinking his coffee at a local cafe. Right in broad daylight. Yeah fans take soccer very serious oversees, I've seen Refs dragged out of cabs and beat to a pulp, for making a bad call, that was in Greece. In Washington D.C during the world cup I saw a game between Italy and Mexico and during that game a Italian older man took the billy club out of the belt of a cop standing up against a rail overlooking the crowd and tried beating a Mexican Fan over the head with it. We are lucky to have the organization and security we have during the games.....
