Actually, this behavior simply mimics what’s becoming an epidemic in college athletics. The set-up: Arizona fans were mad their team was getting housed by USC. When Davon James punctuated USC’s dominance with an emphatic dunk, complete with him pointing to the Wildcats crowd, a `Zona fan decided they’d pay him back. With a bottle of water:

Now, maybe James shouldn’t have pointed at the crowd after he spiked that dunk, but the fact remains, you don’t throw stuff at opposing players or teams. Furthermore, I’m pretty sure James was responding to 20 in-game minutes worth of heckling from the Wildcats fans. To his credit, Arizona coach Kevin O’Neill got on the PA and called his student section out, while apologizing to USC.

If this and the type of stuff the SI article refers to continues, perhaps we’ll need to start holding rivalry games in closed arenas. H/T to SbB.

Stumble it!
