That's nothing...NO big deal..Back in the old days, when the NYC PSAL basketball championships were held in the old Madison Square Garden, if you were, for example, a DeWitt Clinton student who mistakenly walked into a Boys HS bathroom for that day, you came out via the sewage pipe into Hudson River. And that doesn't include the occasion poor sould who "flew" out of the balcony...and it's ALL true, not ONE urban legend..
That's nothing. Socer has literally led to WAR between two countries.
A Tragic Soccer Match
The immediate cause for the beginning of hostilities, was the violence that developed in both countries, during the qualifying round for the 1970 World Soccer Cup. The first game, which matched the national teams of El Salvador and Honduras, took place in the Honduran Capital of Tegucigalpa, and won by Honduras. When the game ended, Salvadoran fans, which had traveled to support their team, complained of mistreatment in the hands of Honduran nationals. At the same time, the anti-Salvadoran propaganda increased its tempo in local radio stations. The next game took place on 15 June in San Salvador, and this time, the Salvadoran team being the winner. It was the Hondurans turn to be the target of attacks and insults from the Salvadoran population. At the same time this was happening, Honduran radio stations broadcasts exacerbated the anti-Salvadoran climate, and this caused an eruption of violence against Salvadorans residing in Honduras, producing looting, arson and persecution against the Salvadorans there. Many Salvadorans residing in Honduras had to flee towards the border and seek refuge in their country of origin.
