With due respect, they've never seen a Saskatchewan Roughriders game at Mosaic Stadium - or just about any other stadium in the CFL. This is a club that used to have a fan who set off fireworks after every touchdown...on his head (well strictly speaking it was a pyrotechnic flash in a small can on the top of a construction worker's helmet). Rider fans often show up wearing carved out watermelons on their heads, and are amazed when - as happened at a game in Vancouver against the BC Lions recently - security prevents them from wearing their watermelon helmets into the stadium.

I take it no European soccer teams were listed because they are in a league of their own, so to speak.
