I was in Syracuse when they lost the NCAA National Championship to Indiana in '89 (i think it was 89 anyway). I knew it was time to leave when I turned around to look up the street and saw a line of police in full riot gear with shields and helmets. We got to our car, left the city, slept for a few hours in some parking lot, then drove back down to CT.
Was pretty tame as far as riots go, but still not something I want to be involved with again.
