MINNEAPOLIS (WCCO) –Police in riot gear arrested 10 University of Minnesota students Thursday night after hundreds took to the streets of Dinkytown following the Gophers’ stunning last-second win over North Dakota in the Final Four.

I’ve never understood why there are riots sometimes, after a team wins a championship.
I enjoy sports as much as anybody, but, never understood how some take it to an extreme. Or why violent behavior somehow is a way to celebrate your team’s success.
Alcohol and drugs may well play a part in the behavior.
Especially since they didn’t win THE championship as of yet.
Nothing says ‘winner’ like burning a couch.

Oops I thought you said COACH. my bad. Darn dyslexia anyhow.
