Off to watch the riot, opps I mean the tennis

So, are you off to watch the tennis or the riot? Yesterday, there was some chaos in front of the Rod Laver Arena, with some clashes among the Serbian and Croatian fans. I thought I saw some Greek fans ejected too but I wasn’t sure. I think this is the first time I saw violence at the tennis.

I hope it is just the weather driving people to do crazy things and not something that society is breeding. I find it embarrassing to have friends calling from overseas telling me they saw the riot on television. Please, its just a game. Get a life.

    No idea how anyone can play tennis in this heat.

    I like this take on what happened yesterday.
