If you're ever in Poland, get yourself to a soccer game. Any soccer game will do. Just make sure you get there early, because rowdy fans can put an end to the contest — even if it's one involving seven-year-olds.
Unruly fans caused a game involving U-8 teams (players seven and younger) affiliated with their local club to be canceled. They chanted, lit road flares and threw streamers onto the gym floor. And they didn't stop.
Kids coughed and choked as they raced to remove the debris from the floor, but it didn't help. The fans kept throwing streamers out there.
Eventually, the referee decided "enough is enough" and called off the game. Kids should learn at a young age what the future has in store for them (if they decide to stay in the game).
