Figured it was some obnoxious Brazilians.

Nope...obnoxious Americans.

The station may be in Miami, but the altercation was in WDW.

Nice going, soccer seems to breed violence, just like some hockey fans.

I have never seen a fight between hockey fans. Football always, baseball sometimes, never hockey. Classiest athletes in sports by far...

I have worked for an NHL team for years and have attended countless games.. Never has there been a serious altercation in the stands.

Except Philly, they're animals.

As a season ticket holder to the Eagles since around 1980 that was true for many years. Remember, the Vet did have it's own judge and jail. Batteries, flare guns, brawls, we had it all. During a snowy Eagles-Cowboys game back when Terry Bradshaw called games these two guys hung their friend upside down over the railing of the upper deck while another guy handed him snowballs so he could pelt Terry and Verne Lundquist while they tried to broadcast the game. Al Michaels infamously compared the Vet to downtown Beirut during the Monday night game when a flare gun went off.

However, once the Phillies and Eagles moved to their own stadiums it has gotten a lot better. So much so, that I have taken all three of my children (all under 12) to games without hesitation.

Shocking. Was there finger snapping before the brawl started?

Are you sure the brawl wasn't because the 2nd place team got Magic Bands + as a consolation prize and they did not like the fact they only got 3 FP+s?

Based on some of the comments on here about the Magic Band...that's very plausible. LOL

It was unfortunate when the Three Caballeros got involved.

Want to see hockey fans fight? Seriously? Look at Canada. Look at stuff that goes on after the Stanley Cup. Riots.

Vancouver? That was riots in the street, not the arena. No one was fighting, there was a lot of frustration, not saying it was right. No one fights at hockey games, obviously on the ice it happens but no, you're way off. Hockey fans, especially the NHL are in a different league compared to other pro sports. Oakland is a bad place to watch football or baseball if youre from out of town. Chicago bulls, every year they won the the NBA championship, there were violent riots... Even LA had some bad crowds.

Soccer, especially internationally, is extremely violent in the stands. My company doesn't even handle ticketing and entry the same way in Europe because its so bad.
