As a Romanian, I remember when I was young going to my first football match against a Russian team. They were literally shouting war cries and chanting death songs. I became a man that day.
American stands near the stadium: “we got all kinds of food, what would you like?” European stands near the stadium: “looking to protect yourself, or deal some damage?”
american shop near the stadium: "hey little kid, you can't buy this m16, you're too young, you should try the tec-9 it's allowed for you" european shop near the stadium: "we got all kinds of food and drinks, what would you like?"
Europe teams are built on a club, an identity related to a town , an area. NBA teams are franchises, purely commercial entities set to move for profits.
Nba teams are all in america besides the one toronto team. they all share the same american identity. in europe there’s a buncha countries with different identity’s. that adds a bit more of pride to uo team because its not just your favorite basketball team, but it’s also your country
In the USA you have basketball fans, soccer fans, baseball fans, hockey fans... In the Europe you have club fans that are supporting every game in the every sport
One thing I wish was more common here in America is fans doing these European song chants because here it is either simple cheers that the cheerleaders do or it's just general noise. I think it can really bring a cheerful and strong fan base together
No. The European cheer style sucks. They're just noise makers. We should aspire to cheer like the Japanese who have specific chants for every player. Also making chants against the other team is just what douchbags do
While this is funny... You don't know many American sports fans do you? You'll find that most US passion for her sports is in her college games. Florida State, U.S. Naval Academy, Portland Timbers, etc. There are some really good ones in the US. You just have to know where to look.
@@fullnelson9999 "Individualism" is like a plot-armor. It's so convenient to just throw the concept of "individualism", whenever there is even a slight criticism of capitalist system or culture.
@@fullnelson9999 How does supporting your club passionately independently of your country make you less individual than droning out your national anthem over a big flag with no reference to your team at all? The US basketball crowd looked like a North Korean state address the way everyone is like a bot going through the motions, filling the same role as everyone else.
@@itsWelshy Not only the national anthem ceremonies, the entire "fan" culture is shaped by the franchise owners and regulatory bodies (often the broadcaster). I mean if a small group would stand up and try to sing a chant, they will get escorted out. I can't understand how can anybody throw the "individualism" on here, when they can only chant whenever the announcement guy (I don't know the exact term) actually commands them to yell "D E F E N S E".
@@itsWelshy hyperbole doesn't make your argument any stronger. North Korea? Give me a break. Americans don't associate the anthem with the same things that other countries do. You're trying to analyze this with the wrong perspective.

@Antonio what do you want from me? I come from Frankfurt and we would beat you up every single day in our life. The real sport is in forests or somewhere hidden out of public 20 vs 20. Never watched basketball in my whole life Football is the only passion
The thing is in the states it's more casual, rich people get the nice seats and all us bums have the noise bleeds. Plus they have more control over how people should act, like announcing let make some noise or play song so people can join in. In Europe you can tell people are like screw it, and just want to see the their team win.
I didn't pay 150-600 dollars to get a better workout than the players. I went for a few beers, entertainment, and some food. Ill yell and scream when they actually do something worthy of applause.
It's only Serbia, Greece and Turkey where such atmosphere can be seen on basketball game. Most Europeans don't care about basketball and often there are very few spectators present.

@@alessandromassaccesi8114 agree after all life is normal life we release our entire stress while watching matches and it does work instead of doing bad thing with stress
Yup, they love to spout off about freedom and then EVERYONE SING THE NATIONAL ANTHEM NOW. Creepy place. edit: to be clear, this video is creepy to me because the American segment reeks of overly corporatised, prescriptive "fun-having". No spontaneity. No passion. It is also creepy (to anyone who knows anything about the Prison Industrial Complex or US foreign policy) to be sold the ideas of Freedom and Democracy by a government that clearly has little to no interest in either, and it is done through the constant low-level propaganda of various patriotic symbols/phrases (one nation under God, the star-spangled banner, sweet land of liberty etc.). This isn't to say that all Patriotism is bad, or that my country doesn't have its own problems, but this is an insidious part American society and it serves as a barrier to progress.
@@jacob8949 because we love the song. What's so creepy about that? We're not singing it for the world to see our patriotism. We sing it because we are just naturally patriotic. Notice alot of the people weren't singing. How is that not freedom? Its only creepy when your history isn't coming from weakest underdogs to strongest in the world. You know, like 90% of europe.
@@EBG... Patriotism through propaganda, nothing natural about it. As for that "strength" you love to boast about, how's American Imperialism working out for the rest of the world? Not something to be proud of.
the biggest difference: we don't kill each other. we celebrate sport, are proud of our colors but the human factor takes precedence over everything. in the USA people are worth nothing. Brands, gangs, symbols are worth more.
@Antonio Do you really go to comments of people to spread your negativity? Do you enjoy this? You have posted like over 10 comments in this video insulting European basket culture. It's not people in this video who you should be embarrassed of.
@Antonio We sure as hell should be embarassed but not for the reason you named. You can look up Red Star vs Partizan football derby if you want to see them literally having a war in the stadium and playing a contact sport. They always fight, there was even an execution during one match, and there is always a ton of badly hurt people. The stadiums are full of ultra nationalistic people who would love to go to war and commit atrocities. They are usually drunk and or drugged crackheads with no life or future, that's why we should be embarassed, because stuff like this should be eradicated but it is unfortunately often glorified in parts with low HDI.
Except that European basketball teams are full of American athletes who have successful long term careers there. So your theory falls down. You would probably shit your pants. Psychiatrists call that "projection".
if you want a party come to a football match in south america, I watched the world cup qualifier between bolivia and peru and people were climbing up the cage surrounding the pitch, there were swat helicopters and police everywhere, it was insane
Spectators: USA 50 percent men 50 percent kids and women (family event) - Europe 95% men and 80% drunken of them, europ they celebrate themselves instead watching and being interested in the game
Lol try a match between two Istanbul teams, you would feel like you are going to war. The only place i can think where it can be tame is some English football clubs who have become too corporate like Man City and Chelsea.
Nah, this video is one sided. The average nba playoff crowd is way louder than the nba games they showed in this video. & the average Euroleague crowd is not that crazy. They have normal crowds too, just watch any Euroleague game. Most of the time the crowd is half empty.
@@ATLMike94 basketball isn’t even our main sport, our main sport is football (the normal one) and the crowds there are far better than any crowd of any sport you’ll find in America. Americans don’t come anywhere close to our sports culture, because you don’t have one
now its not all of europe. to get good basketball atmospheres, go to greece and watch giants like olympiacos and panathinaikos play and there's your atmosphere
How can you have basketball ball ultras lol, I went to a American basketball game earlier this year and enjoyed the atmosphere, but I will now try and get to a game in Europe somewhere
I remember all standing in Football grounds in UK, they were some experience, the passion, singing, chanting, giving grief, being squashed in. Great days.
Its pretty much like this: Americans: chants, songs and entertainment is controlled, regulated and enforced by the console guy/DJ in the stadium. Playing a mixture of traditional, basic, generic, repetitive chants. Europeans: The crowd controls everything, nothing is impossed nor controlled by the stadium speaker. Its just the fans singing their guts out with passion for their team. Which makes it Beautiful.
Enzo Anonymous Lmao... the only player in that league right now that could ball is Mirotić, everybody else is shitty compared to the NBA, Mirotić was a top 100 player in the NBA which is really good but when that is your best player that says a lot. Thanks for Luka though😂
I was a respectable American child who lived in England from 8-12. I liked Space Jam. I went to a England game and there was sort of a vague terror to the whole thing. Like even when England scored, the joy was kinda menacing. Menace permeated. I think if a kid goes to a haunted house on Halloween here in the states he’ll get some of the same feeling.
You would be surprised: The architects need to take the jumping fans into account. Too many fan-areas broke down in the past. European stadiums are probably a nightmare to architects, security planners and so on.
I live in Germany and let me tell you… here it's football or nothing, the energy in each stadium is wild, even if you’re watching from home. A few years ago there was a literal fight going on with two different football team fans, outside of a stadium. In europe it really is war when it comes to sport. *thank you for correcting me
I know basketball isn't as big as soccer here but it IS roughly the second most popular sport by now. And while flares and the like aren't allowed, the passion and chanting is the same :)
