fans do participate..just at a different level. Fans can be "penalized" by getting thrown out of the game or in some instances..if enough stuff is thrown on a field or fans storm the field.. the game can be forfeited. And also in my point that if all fans failed to acknowledge that a sport exists.. then I fail to see how college sports would continue to prosper. I also think that without fans..and the existance of sports on a major level, that you'd find amatuer participation would soon die as well.
the people who riot..are simply not doing the right thing..that isn't my point...
