This was the scene soccer game in Brazil yesterday. By the looks of it, one team lost, and for some reason a riot started when the team tried to leave through their gate. The police come out, and people begin jumping from the stands and tearing up the play field. The police officers try to contain the melee, but they are outnumbered, and one of the officers gets knocked out. The rest of the officers get pelted with toilet-paper, drinks, chairs, and various parts off of the stadium.
Somehow a fire gets started with a bunch of tissue paper, and more people rush the field and an all-out brawl ensues. Eventually riot police show up and contain the mass of people with bean-bag shotguns, riot shields, and batons.
Let’s hope Brazil can begin to contain their unruly sports crowds, as they plan to host the 2016 Summer Olympics in Rio de Janerio.
