Buckball Hooligans · 6:46am Aug 29th, 2021
Is there any story featuring football hooligans, in MLP FIM's case Buckball Hooligans. Basically a group of people who love drinking and getting drunk, and getting into fights with other hooligans from another team... or just random people.
I think the concept has some potential for some hilarity. Especially if there's a universe where humans make first peaceful first contact with the ponies. But the Buckball Hooligans put a dent in it.
by football are we talking soccer or real football
and i dont think there has been any if you want to write it go right ahead
ps if its real football they have to be eagles fans. after all who else boos Santa clause
Can't think of any off the top of my head. One scenario I can imagine would be humans and ponies watching a game together, with the humans getting to the belligerently-drunk state of hooligans while the ponies abstain and drink water. Unbeknownst to either group, the hooligans' sweat contains enough salt to bring the ponies to an equal state of belligerence, since salt has a similar effect on ponies as alcohol does on humans. You'd wind up with a snowballing and self-sustaining hooligan brawl rolling around town, picking up every pony in the vicinity to increase the size.
A new sport called Hooliganball Rolling comes into popularity, competing by size, distance from the starting point, and amount of property damage caused to the other team's hometown.

Soccer. Football means Soccer where I am from. Not American Football.

I imagine the sport would be banned in many places if that was the case. XD
No Hooliganball Rolling in Canterlot perhaps.

Many ideas could happen. Like Pony and human hooligans together picking fights with people after losing a game football. XD

It was the Americans that coined the term football after we developed our game, which itself was derived from rugby.
Waitaminnit! American football was derived from rugby, which was derived from soccer. Dammit all! Why does it go back to soccer?!

Personally I don't care too much sport in general. I do weight lifting and walking to keep myself healthy.
I could see a drunk Fluttershy or Celestia leading a mob of fellow drunken pony hooligans in a massive brawl against a mob of equally drunk human hooligans.
CNN announcer: Today London is on fire as police attempt to regain control. The violence, which was originally though to be rioting, turned out to be mobs of pony and human fans who are very fanatical about about their teams, colloquially known as hooligans. *announcer places finger to earpiece* It turns out that as the violence spreads, France has preemptively surrendered, Italy has preemptively abdicated and Germany has put its military on high alert.
*Steelers and Eagles fans* That's cute.
*Fliers fans* Hold my beer.
I do remember reading a story where ponies attended an American football game and were overly influential in the game's final outcome. They were consequently banned from attending Broncos games.
Edit:
Found It! It was hiding 4 pages deep in my "One Shots" folder.

Sounds like a war. I bet the sport would end being banned after the war is over. It's only allowed to be played on small island in the middle of nowhere.
