Rights of Fans
The rights of a fan is to be respectful and support there team. I think a fan is required to attend the game and respect themselves, their team, and fellow spectators. There are too many times when fans go to the games, get drunk and act crazy. For instance, the Hillsborough event when drunk Liverpool fans overcrowded the section behind the goal known as Leppings Lane. The section was severely overpopulated and people in the front rows were crushed up against the fence. As a result of the Hillsborough disaster 96 fans were killed and about 766 were injured. Another event similar to this could happen if fans get out of control. This shows how fans need to show respect for themselves and others. It's hard for this to happen in certain sporting events especially because of how big the stadiums are. It's also difficult for an event like Hillsborough to happen again because most stadiums don't have standing room and you can only get in with a ticket, and once the stadium is sold out, no more fans will be allowed in. I think fans are allowed to have fun at sporting events but they need to control themselves.
