  By Greg Matzek CREATED Sep. 21, 2012

  Soccer has a reputation for having the most over-zealous and borderline insane fans in the world. Every year there is a story about a fan base rioting after a loss, or an all out meltdown on the field or in the stands as fans for rival countries cross the line of being civil.
