People going mental?

Slow work day. SO....

What is the funniest reaction/behaviour you've ever seen at a football match?

Lad sat a few rows in front of us at Blackburn game was going COMPLETELY SICK every time the ref made a call he didn't like. He was throwing his limbs about like an angry octopus and stamping his feet as hard as he could and his voice was dog-whistle level of pitch due to his burning rage. I found this hilarious.

I imagine there's been better reactions happen in the heat of the moment where people just lose themselves. I guess as crazy as mine has ever been is kissing the fella next to me when we won the shoot-out at Cardiff. It was a big moment for me..

Let's have em lads/lasses.

 

That was a weird day for things like that. Me and dad were sat next to a young couple who'd have been around 21ish maybe. When we won the shoutout the guy cried so much he made Gazza at Italia 90 look like just watery eyes. My dad was seeing if he was alright whilst his girlfriend was laughing in his face.

 

Where about's do you sit mate? haha

 

east stand lower - left hand side towards ponty

 

So not on the half way line, Row NN?

 

fraid not pal, something hilarious go down over there ?

 

When we beat Chelsea in the cup. One of the younguns with us (late teens) just burst into tears at the end. Obviously he'd been indoctrinated by the media that we were 5hit and Chelsea were invincible, that he just couldn't cope with the reality.

 

haha brilliant. It can be very hard facing up to the cruel world.

 

I thought you were on about me for a minute, as I sit east lower and my actions generally are exactly the same as you described. I have been known to look set to combust.

 

do you have longish hair, glasses and are pretty tall? if so MAYBE I'VE LOST MY BEARINGS ENTIRELY.

 

Liverpool in prem when we had 3 sent off I can remember a few goin crazy that day

Until you posted this I thought it was me, I did go ape a few times, out of my seat, shouting, waving arms about, mental. Is the guy you mention in his 40s/50s, long curlyish hair, if it is I think I know who it is, he's a taxi driver, a complete idiot, sat near us at Wembly, kept jumping up and punching the cladding on the ceiling, picked me up a few times, completely mental.

 

Back in January 2001, we were playing the runaway leaders Fulham at home. At one point, Louis Saha had a refereeing decision go against him. He then threw the sort of paddy rarely seen outside a nursery school. Jumping up and down, stamping his feet, throwing his arms around and shouting at the top of his voice. The laughter and derision from the home support at his theatrics was brilliant!

 

Bromsgrove, in the cup. The worst display by any Barnsley team I've ever witnessed.

1 - 0 down and a packed away end going mental at the ineptitude. Totally against the run of play in the last minutes of the match, we don't only have the temerity to steal an equalizer, we grab a totally undeserved winner. Cue a full time invasion of the pitch by ecstatic Reds.

The only time I've felt embarrassment by being a Barnsley fan.

 

Agree Kev, that was funny, remember it as if it was yesterday.

 

Against Wednesday few seasons ago sitting in East lower near North Stand, constant shower of coins been thrown in both directions and noticed an old bloke going absolutely mental half way up North stand he ran all way down and dove into crowd of stewards and police in corner was hilarious can only image he'd been hit by one of the coins.

 

My daughter would've been six at the time and there's no way she'd have behaved like that!

 

Away at QPR late 90s. Mollycat literally screaming "FREEEEEAAAKK!!!" at Karl Ready for a solid 90 minutes.. For years I thought it was aimed at Peter Crouch and so did Peter, often citing that match as a motivator for him to become a better player. And obviously score tons against us - he got a couple in that game, in the usual 3 or 4 nil romp for the home side.

 

you sound like a real catch, but you're not the culprit brother.
