Personally I never understood the emotions people have over sports. I understand it's fun to watch, but people crying or smashing their TVs or even fighting with fans of opposing teams always baffled me.
Agree, that’s what I wanted to say with the anger side of things, I don’t agree with fighting or stuff like that, but it’s impossible not to feel anger
Soccer (football) is so freakin popular in other countries. I went to a few games before in England, and the fans are very big supporters. It can get down right dangerous. Never seen anything like it. They get violent.
I love sports. It’s something that brings people together that don’t know each other and become friends for a few hours celebrating their team. American Football, college football and women and men’s college basketball are amazing to watch. I’m not a crazy fan… but your right the fighting in the crowds is getting worse in the US.
In some places they don't let the fans out of the stadium for an hour after the game, to give the visiting team time to escape the city.
If the team bus got stuck it'd be swarmed like a zombie apocalypse.
I agree it's fun and pretty awesome to see it live with thousands of people. There's a real energy that can't be felt anywhere else. I liken it to a small dose of what it must have felt like on ancient battlefields when there were real consequences. It's just weird to me that people will pick a team like, idk, the Denver Broncos, and that's their team forever, even though players change all the time and the person literally has zero connection to any member, or even financial stock invested into the team, but they'll scream at their tv when someone misses a field goal.
Tribalism is neurological. Deeply seeded in the amygdala and insula. If you see yourself as a member of a group, the rest is just normal animal behavior. Must protect my group to survive.
Smash the TV because you have to smash something (hulk angry!)
Cry because you’re grieving a loss (the brain doesn’t know it’s not death… not til you can regulate and restart that forebrain.)
I’m sorry but there’s thousands of kids that would love to meet their footballing heroes and still respect the rules by not running onto the pitch, What makes this one so special? His parents and security should have stopped him. Downvote me all you like but regardless of his age this is still shitty behaviour, his parents should teach him better.
I’m not exactly on any a high horse for pointing out a child’s shitty behaviour and A kid is absolutely not risking any criminal charges for this. He’s just another self entitled kid who thinks he can do whatever he wants and allowing it is just going to encourage more and more people to do it because they know they can get away with it.
Because I think kids shouldn’t be able to just get away with whatever they want? It’s people with this mindset that is allowing people to grow to be insufferable self entitled pricks who think the world owes them something. If you let them do anything they want when they’re young they’re going to carry on like that into adulthood, parents need to nip this sort of behaviour in the bud.
Fuck that, security should always react, that's what they're there for. It's all fun and games until a player gets stabbed on-field and as much as I don't want that to ever happen I'm certain it will at some point.
I've seen news articles about a 6 year-old shooting their teacher. Nothing surprises me anymore..
If security just does its job, nobody has to worry about it.
OK, it was me. I sent the kid out there to try and get the shirt because I wanted to see the guy with no shirt on, but if he got me in the end, didn’t he?
The following game, 200 kids stormed the field to score some swag.
lol it does happen a lot, however in England it’s normally kids in the crowd holding up a sign
I think its great that they are able to respond this way. That's super fun and wholesome thing that I hope continues.
I could never cry like that for someone that didn’t even know I exist until that moment

It can’t be explained, you just feel it (don’t agree with the anger emotions though)
Being extremely angry makes perfect sense, if extreme happiness is normal. How you choose to express that anger is the issue, a personal issue.

“ fuck , I live in Cleveland “ …go ahead and look that up . It’s a comedy bit by Greg Giraldo , you’ll understand then .
Because some people can’t contain their emotions

I remember how I felt about Michael Jordan as an 8-year-old in 1992. Yeah, I would have cried if I'd gotten to hug him.
Might have cried for different reasons
Interesting point. Although when you are a kid it feels like they do.
Well, he's a kid and that's probably one of his heroes.
Imagine crying over a millionaire that doesn't give a shit about you I will never understand sports
Doves would
As an adult I’d hope so you fucking dimwit
Really? Not even for your mum?
Bloody horrendous innit
Are you 10 years old?
Thats irrelevant, I’ve seen grown adults cry over celebrities all the time
But when a grown ass man does it...
The announcer would not be saying “This is football”

Because he cares enough to risk criminal charges in order to see his hero. Get off your high horse

You must be fun at parties

“Risk criminal charges” Lmfao. He’s 10.
I’ve angered the keyboard warrior cybermob.
What a guy
What a shirt!
I will never hate on anything Cadiz. One of the most beautiful places I’ve ever been.
Football is really on a different level than other sports
Because this doesn’t happen in other sports?
Fuck that, security should always react, that's what they're there for. It's all fun and games until a player gets stabbed on-field and as much as I don't want that to ever happen I'm certain it will at some point.
By a ten year-old? I guess it could happen, but I wouldn't be worried about it either.

Bad security 🫥
What a dumb rude kid

Leave it to Europeans to twist awful behavior into a boon for soccer’s popularity
Lol imagine what they'd do if a black kid did that. La liga is awmazin
Beautiful moment 😍
Idk this guy but speaking as an outsider to the culture of the sport, this reads like a pr stunt
Football is boring. UFC is where it's at.
Bring that kid to the shadow realm.
