09.10.08 SHOCKING NEWS FROM THE OAKLAND GAME
And to think, their shop teachers said they’d never amount to anything.
Monday Night Football’s late half of the doubleheader featured the Raiders sucking against the Broncos. And you may be surprised to learn this, but dozens of fans were kicked out of the stadium for poor behavior (link via FanIQ). Get ready to read about… Booze! Cop-punching! Stun guns! Styrofoam shoulder spikes!
Police say they arrested 45 Oakland Raiders fans and used stun guns to break up several fights at Monday night’s game against the Denver Broncos.The arrests for drunkenness, fighting, assault and drug charges were on top of dozens of ejections for minor offenses such as sitting in the wrong seat.
Authorities say three police officers were hurt when a brawl broke out… Two of the officers suffered cuts and bruises when they were punched in the face. The third officer suffered a broken finger.
A police spokesman noted that some people attended the game “just to start trouble.” Makes sense to me. The alternative is actually watching the Raiders.

Nice to see Al Davis tailgating with the fans.
I cannot believe the fans behavior. Why next you will tell me there is no Santa Clause or no gay Nets players!
Hugh shoots and scores. I guffaw’ed.

No comment.
that’s about the same as a wednesday night a’s game, before the closed the 3rd deck anyway.
Guy on the left, way to cap off your insane ensemble with a terrifying Hutch football helmet. Just like the one the government makes you wear every day.
This has been a pretty rough decade to be a Raiders fan. Last decade was no picnic, either.
The guy on the right went on a hunger strike until the Raiders won a playoff game.
For a Raider season ticket holder I was more into watching those fights than watching my beloved Raiders embarass themselves on national television.
