Some schools, people and media do not take this seriously, I keep saying one day there will be serious injuries or deaths, I don't see how there isn't enough security at some of these games.

If you watch my video, the security guards just moved out of the way, then ran off the court during the court storming. They didn't stand a chance.

DId I really just read that there were "unruly" fans? Sounds like sore losers to me.

1) I have been injured when a student section rushed the court. This happened while I was writing for the UofL paper as a freshman and St Louis upset UofL when they were ranked #2. The students were over the line and received warnings all game long from security, but I was still bowled over and trampled when the horn went off. It was quite unpleasant. This happened a few days after a number of pilgrims were trampled to death during the Hajj in Mecca, and I was pretty scared; what I'm getting at is that I am not entirely without sympathy.

 

2) She sounds like sour grapes to me.

They spent forever talking about this on KSR for the last couple of days. While I love KSR & UK, I firmly believe that if Watford misses that shot, we're not having this discussion.

 

No kidding? They wouldn't have rushed the court if he missed that shot!

Storming a court or field is so silly in my opinion!

 

Didn't KY get fined for the fans running onto the football field after a victory? Does it apply in hoops too?

It was MUCH worse than unruly fans.

It was a mob. It wasn't a section of 20 guys harrassing nearby fans. It was 40-45% of the entire arena.

 

Again, then she should have limited her complaints to that. As soon as she goes "We're UK and we're better than you as fans" then she loses credibility.

How much credibility does a Playboy bunny really start with? haha!

I can't help out her common sense, but I do see that she's now on the front page of Yahoo.com. I guess this little ordeal has worked out pretty well for her.

People from Kentucky and Indiana arguing about who has more class... that sound you hear is the rest of the country doubled over with laughter. :lol:

 

In all seriousness, this has been an issue for a while and I say they take FIFA solution to what happens when teams have what they call in Europe a "pitch invasion"... the next game is played in front of an empty stadium/arena. The loss of revenues will have every university in the country putting a stop to this.

No school does that. They cannot.

That is an SEC rule I believe. Applies to football and basketball (and other sports??) as far as I know.

My point is that if you're not going to ban it then it's useless to say "hold on, kids, and wait until everyone clears the floor."

Banning it wouldn't have stopped it either. Normally there is SOME effort to keep it from happening so FAST.

Is that ther smae girl ? The picture on here is different than the one on the UK CATS site. It shows a blonde girl wearing UK stuff. And the one on the FOX Sports is not the same.
