Next time you hear about rioting sports fans in Europe, don't automatically think soccer hooligans. Apparently women's volleyball can get folks pretty riled up, too:
Greek authorities have cancelled all team sports matches for two weeks after a mass brawl between rival women's volleyball fans left one man dead.Who knew?* * *
The pitched battle took place between fans of Olympiakos Piraeus and Panathinaikos near Athens.
Witnesses say about 300 fans fought using clubs, knives and stones.
On a related note, I haven't heard any reports of couch burning or other lunacy in Morgantown in the wake of WVU winning the NIT last night!
