    Common sense? In Italy? Argghhhh!

    I recall an Asian fan wearing a Roma jersey at stadio olimpico and he was sitting in the Lazio section. They pinned him down, ripped off his shirt , turned it inside out and put it on him again. The carabinieri did nothing.

    In the Aspromonte too. My distant cousin was captured for two years and they hid him there for ransom.

    Just telling the truth. I liked the way Atalanta played in the Serie A. Gasparini had them playing beautifully but Italy needs big teams in order to Make Italy Great Again! MIGA!!

    To be honest that's some common sense policing. As long as the guy wasn't in danger, they were making the right decision not to enrage the whole curva and turn those morons into a mob. It's not like the Lazio fans aren't waiting for such excuses to go collectively mental.

    That guy could not be more dumb lol.

    I was sitting in tribuna tevere centrale for Roma-Inter, there was 1 single guy wearing an Inter shirt in a sea of Roma fans, I swear in that section, I did not see another Interista....and nobody touched or bothered the guy. He was well behaved, still shouted for his team, but obviously didn't go sit in the curva like a big dummy.

    At Milan games they don’t care as much but there are a lot of southern Romani up there...

    South of Naples no one cared but only because most fans there were happy to see big clubs.

    Did they use any of those on him? The situation in your initial post sounded like a strip show, not a beating. So which was it?

    But yeah - planting yourself in a bad situation doesn't excuse the people who might beat you up, but it certainly tells a story about the level of your own survival instincts.

    From what I recall, one guy pulled out a knife, others held him down with the chain and rope or a whip.

    The cops didn’t care. On that day anyway, they made NYPD look respectable.

    I've never been at a Roma away game in Italy, so I cannot speak from personal experience there.

    But I've been on a few Roma away games in CL/EL and we've won in all of them. Sitting in the mostly neutral part of the stands closest to the tifosi, but apart from them( much closer to the local fans than to the Roma fifosi) never let to any abuse to me or my Romanisti fellows. But we did our homework by choosing to sit where the level headed home fans are, so having Roma shirts wasn't a problem.

    And we've made sure to avoid the local ultras on our way out and around the staidum after the match, as to not to encounter any drunk people who'd be stupid enough to start a fight.

    And voala - you go, you see, you walk away fight-free.

    Viola fans get rowdy but Artemio Franchi is fairly safe. They have a fence behind the goal too.

    The area around the train station isn’t that great but the fans at stadium are ok.

    Everyone told me to go covered up on the train towards the Olimpico.

    Not one person on the train showed any colors whatsoever, but as soon as we all stepped off at the stadium exit...everyone unzipped and banged their colors, running towards their respective crowds. Thought it was hilarious.

    The first time I went to the olimpico , I went with my cousin who is a total Laziale and we saw Lazio Samp...

    The Cops checked our bags but I had a lot of junk to take out so I gave him an American dollar and he let me go in without searching.

    Of course!

    In the year 2000 , a United States dollar was worth over ₺2,500 lire..

    Good enough to buy a liter of wine in the Chianti area of Tuscany..

    All of this fuss over a provincial side who got drubbed by a club from Croatia. If it was a 7:1 thumping by Bayern Munich, that would be a different story.
