WTF Egypt!

Egypt had a serious ‘WTF’ moment on Wednesday when fans of two rival football clubs went ballistic after a match that took place in Port Said between Al Masry and Al Ahly. At least 74 people died and reports say another 1,000 were injured as rival fans threw stones at one another and armed themselves with knives and clubs.

Reports say scores of fans were killed as they were trapped in a long corridor trying to flee and were trampled in the ensuing melee in the country’s worst ever football match violence. Other reports say that rival fans tossed others to their deaths from balconies at least four stories high.

Maybe it’s me – and I understand the culture is different in Egypt than it is here in the U.S. – but really, but really, ‘WTF’ Egypt
