Strangest thing you've ever witnessed at the match?

Wigan 1988 tekes some beating.

Watching both Santa and Elvis getting nicked at Bradford one year was a bit distressing mind

It was my mate dressed as Elvis at Bradford, he's coming down to mend my leaking toilet this morning.
On a more interesting note, he is a bit of a bookie and at the match he had given odds of 100-1 on Sunderland winning 4-1.Three of the lads on the bus put £5 on.Them three were jumping up and down in the SAFC end like loonatics when Superkev missed a late penalty which would have made it Bradford 1 Sunderland 5.
He lost £1,500 on the bets and decided to round off his afternoon by invading the pitch dressed as Elvis and bowing at Superkevs feet.
He got escorted to the cells , fined £80 and had to get a taxi dressed as Elvis to meet up with us for a night out at York.All in all a canny afternoon.
He was however made famous on Match Of The Day.
Can' t remember Santa at the match but we had Snow White, and Seven Dwarfs as well as Elvis on the bus.

You've reminded me of the Peterborough cup game last year. After both goals some bloke down the front of the terraces proceeded to take off his false leg and wave it around over his head like a lasso, going fuckin' mental.

I couldn't stop laughing about it for about a week afterwards.

I think I know who Santa was, came from Esh Winning.
 
At Man City away my mate had had a skin full. Someone when to get him a pie at half time to try and sober him up at bit, he took one bite and then dropped face down into the row in front. He taped this well-to-do looking lady in front on the shoulder and slurred 'I've dropped me pie under ya feet', she just said 'OK cheers, I'll look out for it' to which he replied 'I want it back'. Not the strangest thing I've seen at football, but this lady looked at him like he was from another planet as she picked it up and gave it him back.
 
At Southend when Stickman scored in the fog. No one could see the end he scored in, and only twigged there had been a goal when the players start running back celebrating. The cheering must have started a good 10 seconds after the goal went in.

"Did we score?"
"Dunno"

Only found out who got it when the announcer put it over the tannoy a bit later.

Took my mate who's not a Sunderland fan to Wigan away last year. During the MON song my mate turned to me with a look of utter perplexment and said there is a man down there swinging a leg above his head.

A few of us were drinking out of it at Plymouth
 
maybe not the strangest but one i'll never forget.
west brom away when we invaded the pitch to fight with them. my mate was wearing proper old school platform boots which had been very fashionable at one point. he was quite short so he kept wearing them for as long as possible before they'd turned into museum pieces.:)

when we climbed over the fence the heal got caught and snapped off. every time i close my eyes and think back i can still see his head bobbing up and down as we charged towards the albion. he would totally disappear then pop up again like a cork in water.:)

Not that strange but West Ham away a few years back, some woman in our end was getting grief from their fans and whips her tits out to shut them up. Think she got moved away to the other side of the stand but not kicked out.

That'll be my wife!

How proud am I? :roll:
 
Forest away, last game of the season, they went up as Champions and the players paraded around the pitch.

Forest fans invaded the pitch and there was friendly banter, I swapped shirts with some fucker. Foolzy off here wanted to swap as well, he got this shitty t-shirt that Del Boy must have knocked up.

The stewards then decided to turf us out of the away end onto the pitch, took us ages to find our way around to the coaches.
 
Got to be Spiderman for me! Iv been reading through this lot and im still pissing myself laughing at that!

Celebrating in the Stadium (when nothing was happening in our game) because Villa scored against the mags when Sheera took them down was a very surreal moment.
