In England we're not even allowed to take flag poles into the stadium,
Serie A seems to have 10ft poles. The bottle thing makes me laugh, as when
you buy a drink in the stadium, they take away the bottle top as it can be
used as a projectile. What about the bottle??
I wondered how the Bayern fans managed to bring flares into Highbury. Why
would you want to anyway? I understand it is a different football culture
on the continent but what is the point of flares in the stadium?
You can go back to the infamous San Siro scooter incident, seriously, how
the hell do you get a scooter in the stadium?? Especially from one of the
higher tiers as those stairs are a bastard.
