Eagles, Phillies, Red Sox, Dodgers, NY Giants, NY Yankees, and Raiders all have pretty stupid/mean fans.

Just for the record, Tampa Bay fans would never throw snowballs at visiting fans or players, lol.

Threw snowballs at coach Jimmy Johnson in 1989

Fans fighting during a MNF game in 1995

Fans booed Michael Irvin while he laid hurt on field in 1999 at the Vet


And that's just off the top of my head
Don't forget booing Santa Claus and throwing batteries at J.D. Drew.

Abusive fans? How about these incidents, all of which are much more recent and abusive than the silly Santa booing (which incidentally occurred over 40 years ago):

New York Giants' own snowball incident in 1995, in which a visiting coach was knocked unconscious by an ice ball, 15 people were arrested and the game was nearly forfeited. Fans outside of Philadelphia throwing snowballs - whaa???

Weekly sexual harassment at Jets games. Despicable. The article is from 2007. Is this still going on?

Beer throwing in Chicago last year

Of course, the Ligue family assault in Chicago in 2002

Dodgers fan shot and killed by Giants fan, 2003

And, just for fun, Oklahoma fan tears ******* of Texas fan, 2007

This kind of stuff unfortunately goes on everywhere, and is usually alcohol-related.

Anyway, I believe the correct answer is somewhere in Europe with the football hooligans

Oakland not on the list? I've heard from several people that a smart individual does not enter a restroom at a Raiders game wearing Chiefs or Broncos colors if he wants to make it back to his seat in the same shape he entered the restroom.

That's what im saying. Oakland is not on the list? Raider Nation is the rowdiest fans in the world.
Just today, I went to the Raiders vs. Rams games. All during the game, in the hallways, Loud chants roared through the coliseum. Literally! The poll needs to be changed

Actually, they hit Santa with snowballs. They also beat up the Redskins' mascot. The violence got so bad that they had to put a jail and a court in the Vet.

Section 700 at Veterans Stadium in Philadelphia

We booed Kobe Bryant and made him cry during All-Star Weekend. We also booed Destiny's Child and Sarah Palin.
