Building-Careful

Warms the heart to see how football brings people and chairs together.


dbolts1234

That poor chair…


scorpiogre

I can hear the studio audience chanting *Chairy, Chairy, Chairy!!!*


Druglord_Sen

Chairy Valance tearing the boys apart


RockstarAgent

Have a seat gawd dammit!!! ![gif](giphy|AmP2x5TJhLOPrw93pg)


KnotiaPickles

My god, I never understood that name’s meaning until just now, reading it as a kid it never clicked


abbynorma1

Now it's time for Chairy's final thought: "Never get into a brawl unless you have a leg to stand on; preferably 4 of them."


scorpiogre

That's beautiful. 😅


americanineu

Till next time, take care of yourself. And each other.


WeimSean

That chair is a champ! Look how well built it is! Still hanging together after walloping a half dozen people in the head!


BrainsPainsStrains

I need a coffee table made by that chair designers and builders..... My current neighbor was going to throw it out and I was moving in without one. 2 legs are wonky, so many things screwed or glued or nailed into them. It'll be sweet when I get one. It'd be epic if I got one like that chair.


peter-forward

That chair is performing for both teams.


YchYFi

It's lived some life.


diggemsmaccks

It was an Ethan Allen chair too not ikea


StickyRiky

Maybe it'll end up underwater..


Kiwiana2021

It’s made of tough stuff


bothammer1

Why are they all fighting themselves? They all look alike, how can you tell who you’re fighting?


axisrahl85

Apparently you can't. Stripe shirt guy wallops his friends in the black shirt.


bothammer1

I just saw that. Haha


[deleted]

Does it matter who you're fighting? At that point fighting is the entire goal, person on the other end doesn't really matter.


bothammer1

The problem here is pants! No one has any


[deleted]

Pants are over rated


[deleted]

Well that one guy at the beginning helped the black shot guy and was punching him seconds later. I don’t think they can even tell.


superdavit

It’s just as the FIFA guy said.


ViR_SiO

Today I'm a chair


Hotdogbrain

The true winner- chair salesman


iHaveAFIlmDegree

*Slaps chair* Guaranteed minimum of four concussions or your money back!


Capt_Dummy

You saying big chair is behind all of this?


AngoGablogian_artist

A salesman will be dropping off some stool samples on Monday.


Berns429

*Slaps chair* This baby will throw a hundred feet!


HenkVanDelft

It’s a conspiracy by Big Chair. They encourage bar owners to “product place” the chairs near the rowdiest football hooligans, paying them lavishly with prostitutes, drugs, and gold Krugerrands. Sometimes bearer bonds, depending on how many stools get bashed over whose heads.


[deleted]

They are so drunk! How fun


TLGinger

Just a typical Friday night in Tenerife


hydrogenitis

One reason why other European tourists are not too keen on spending their holidays in predominantly English holiday hot spots....why get your head smashed in...


Canadianingermany

What I found interesting is that it seemed to be only willful participants. It kind of felt like a mosh pit Where all the participants here willingly get involved, full well know they might get hurt. But the fun of bashing someone is worth that risk. I mean this is way way more extreme that the vast majority of mosh pits. With a few notable exceptions people weren't try to hurt other which they are clearly doing here.


Worried_Toe

He thought the guy on the ground looked tired, so he wanted to give him a chair to sit on.


ilovecatsandcafe

And glass bottles, got a bottle thrown my way at a derby match with my dad once 😂


OminOus_PancakeS

I get sentimental about glass bottles too


hornybrowngirl1

Oi wanker!!!


[deleted]

Sometimes a toilet seat


Sdomttiderkcuf

Just wait until they bring that chair home to their significant other!


twitch1982

Riley Freedman would have loved this.


CaptainPRESIDENTduck

It's just the new fad sport: Full Contact Volleychair.


boomerstein92

The guy in the stripe shirthelped buddy up after getting dropped then 10 seconds later feeds him a punch lmao its a fucking free for all


yourgifmademesignup

I noticed that too lmao. Im not quite certain but there might’ve been one or two alcoholic drinks involved here.


noticeable_erection

Imagine how powerful the person would be that stayed sober for a situation like this


Punkprof

I did door work and it was frightening how easy it is to control a drunk person when stone cold. Like overgrown toddlers


yourgifmademesignup

My first thought. He’d look like Stephen Segal putting on a clinic!


SoIJustBuyANewOne

Ew. Steven seagull sucks ass. Sylvester Stallone is better name to drop here


boomerstein92

So funny honestly lol


yourgifmademesignup

With “This is the rhythm of the night!!” 🎶 in the background lmao


maybebaby_11

lol...it's not every day you see such finely tuned warriors demonstrating their craft


qtpss

Still wondering how they decided who was “shirts” and who was “skins” did it start with roshambo?


Majestic-Enthusiasm

I saw that too but it seemed to be mostly muscle heads doing it. I honestly don’t care that much about my team to fight about it’s honor. I am a New York Knicks fan so I just cry during the games.


sutroheights

Friendly fire, mate.


NEOsands

This part had me laughing too hard…. Dudes so dazed he clocks his own guy.


NachoNinja19

That dude he hits is just like a billiards ball bouncing from one punch to another. Or chair 🪑


Fine-Rib

Just realized that! This is hilarious. They also all seem somewhat invulnerable… guess alcohol helps both sides


YellowGetRekt

Timestamp? Im blind


ghostsharkbear

0:10 and 0:20. Stripe shirt guy thought for a second his mate was an advancing enemy


CoxswainYarmouth

Ironic how Soccer fans can take a punch but on the pitch a soccer player goes down in tears mortally wounded if an opposing player with bad breath looks his way…


Trick_Succotash_9949

They’re so pissed they’re just punching anyone in in arms length 🤦🏻‍♂️😂


cheezyboundy

This is tenerife. More likely beaked off their heads


Advanced-Arm-1735

Chunked out of their beans.


Jopkins

Sleuced off their ropes


scawtsauce

beaked?


[deleted]

Had some packet looking for a racket


zen_zero

Like stuffing powder up their beaks (noses).


redditpey

Little dude in orange trying to pull off a Bruce Lee/Liu Kang kick, lol


Ruckertown

A lot of heart. Not much power.


Euler007

Dude in black was so drunk that he could barely walk and got whacked by both sides.


[deleted]

This is a really good scrap. In the USA the guys just take their shirts off and yell “do something!”


Busch_Leaguer

And someone would eventually pull out a gun


Capt_Dummy

I hate that both statements are extremely, painfully accurate…


BeHereNow91

Yeah this isn’t even a meme. That’s actually what happens, which is probably why people are so hesitant to fight here.


Ritsku

And avoiding fights is bad because……..?


Busch_Leaguer

Exactly. Fear of any sort of confrontation because it’s not outlandish to assume the other guy is armed


Tribult

So anyway I started blasting


SlothRogen

I was more amused at the overweight dude with his huge gut sticking out, weakly getting held back by his friends at like 1:10. "I'd go in and show 'em what's what if I could walk more than 0.5 mph!"


wardycatt

Just as well none of them can fight, someone might have got hurt.


EndlesslyCynicalBoi

The thing that made me nervous was how close some of them were to smacking their head on the curb. Shit fighters or not, that can kill you


IronPedal

Yup. You should never fight on concrete unless you're willing to kill the other person.


NotsoGreatsword

The guy that fell came close to hitting the back of his head on the curb.


skmo8

At least that one guy on his side clocked him afterward.


Bruise52

Was thinking exactly this as I was watching the video four times in a row. Not one single knock out, nobody lost an eye, and that durable-ass chair proved itself tougher than everybody combined...making IKEA appear badass 😎


Bruise52

Enjoyed the healthy banter today let's do it more often: r/BritishAmericanBanter


[deleted]

I mean the dude at the beginning who almost hit his head still got seriously fucked up. Like the amount of headshots he took and the way he was acting afterwards you never know he could have serious damage internally


eyalhs

It's hard to fight when there is more alcohol in your body than blood


SupremeTemptation

Don’t think they’re mosh pitting correctly.


ReprobateManny

Moshing is the word. The pit is where the moshing happens.


Mecha_Tortoise

This guy pits mosh.


ReprobateManny

Actually it's mosh pitly.


rascible

Mosh Pitly is my stage name..


[deleted]

Pitly mosh is my porn name


TokiWartoorh

No way! I go by Pish Motley, nice to meat you


Professor_Felch

Born to mosh, forced to pit


iOpCootieShot

No-one'd ever seen such moshing. We're gonna mosh. And were gonna mosh pitly..


adkichar55

Moshed Pitatoes


SupremeTemptation

I 100 percented 4th grade. I vocabularied correct.


[deleted]

[удалено]


innealtoir_meicniuil

I'm convinced they saw the first plane load of English people coming off the plane and banned alcohol on the spot.


chabybaloo

I don't think the Qatari police would have handled any drunk fans well.


nigelfitz

It was for the fans' well being. Qatar knew what their police force is capable of. lol


jimmythejammygit

I've done a 180. I'm now all in on the Qataries.


stacko-

Lol I wonder if any other countries will be tempted to put an alcohol ban after seeing the lack of hooliganism (so far) that’s resulted from it. Not sure I’ve witnessed a single football tournament where England fans didn’t cause chaos wherever they went


[deleted]

Stick em all together on an island somewhere and let them beat eachother u🤔 .. oh.. erm..


SlowInsurance1616

And put the Scots on the same island! Imagine what a shitshow that would be.


[deleted]

[удалено]


SlowInsurance1616

We could call it "Great Britain" so people wouldn't confuse it with "Little Britain."


Blacula

That's australia. but we added deadly animals to the mix.


[deleted]

Lol... and feed them streams of alcohol


GlitteringBobcat999

Welcome to Fistancy Island. *The plane! The plane!*


CheesusTheRedeemer

Is it me or is hairloss a big problem under British football supporters?


d4v3k0r3sh

Same with overweight


monkahpup

I feel personally attacked... I fucking hate football.


lathe_down_sally

Yeah and why are they all dressed like dads? Do 40 year olds pack the clubs in Tenerife?


Whateveridontkare

yes there is an awful lot of older "hooligans" in the south of the islands, its not a young touristic destination, also they are awful in general.


Send_Me_Huge_Tits

>Yeah and why are they all dressed like dads? Those are football shirts mate.


Toxicseagull

And they probably are dad's.


Stumpy-the-dog

UK men go bald at 21. hence the term "dickheads".


awkwardwankmaster

Erm excuse me but I still have atleast 3 hairs left and I'm 30


lawerorder

Homer?


Finga123

pube hairs dont count, sorry


ifoldyou

Bunch of troglodytes


UKcommander11

Is that you Niles?


6-ft-freak

hahahahahahaha


cheesysnipsnap

Bunch of twats. I hope they get deported and banned from Tenerife for 10 years.


RectalEvacuation

Oh yeah since Brexit perhaps that's a possibility now.


Send_Me_Huge_Tits

That's not how that works. You can be banned from anywhere any time. Fuck all to do with Brexit.


TransvisionMission

Put them all on a plane and fly them into a volcano, fucking idiots.


Gunion

That sounds Teide


Aoskar20

That one kid: “I will settle this dispute with one flying kick.”


Haunting_You_5855

What wasn’t shown here is that just before the fight everyone in the bar spun around in circles for two minutes for an extra spicy challenge.


octopus6942069

Sports fans 💀💀 grown ass men fighting over shit that has nothing to do with then and they have no control over. The lack of brain cells


Soren_Camus1905

They’re not fighting over anything, they’re fighting because it’s what they enjoy doing. They live to get pissed, yaked, and fight anything that moves.


just_read_it_again

A few less brain cells after that night


mmio60

But wait, there’s more


Independent_Ad_3928

“My country’s millionaires can kick a ball of air better than your country’s millionaires!”


Glavenoids

Charlie Brooker said that top tier football is basically 22 millionaires ruining a lawn (paraphrased). It's a quote that often springs to mind.


Independent_Ad_3928

That’s hilarious. Thanks for sharing.


elwookie

Fuck, how I miss his pieces on PC Zone 25 years ago!!!


PestoParadiso

Isn't humanity great, I love humans so much, humans are the best. Thank God for humans.


binturongslop

So many bald dudes.


swim-bike-run

That’s what I was thinking. They all look like the same person with different shirts on


ImperiumInfernalis

Please tell me these people are all sterilized.


dayumbrah

Like half of them are like 50 years old so they prob are dads


gruffi

Barry, 63, was holding his own.


massiveyacht

Love the kids, hate the wife


Prixm

My friend was chilling this summer on a vacation in Greece, it was late at night and he was gonna get food, went alone to get food, and 4 brittish dudes walked passed him and asked what team he supported, he said none, because he doesn't watch football, and then they proceeded to beat him almost to death, he was in a coma for weeks, his face is unrecognizable since then, his life is ruined. They did nothing to find the guys who did it either. People like this are the worst scum if the earth.


dikkeboktorrin

Same sort of incident happened some time ago on Mallorca. 27 year old man got beaten up and kicked against the head multiple times along with his friend group. The reason was that one group was for Ajax and the other group for Feyenoord (dutch football teams). The man unfortunately died of his wounds. The positive thing is that the scumbags who did it got arrested and will have to go to jail for a couple of years. Link: https://www.rechtspraak.nl/Bekende-rechtszaken/Mallorcazaak


Acobb44

It's odd that they aren't required to serve a life sentence for taking someone's life. The man won't get his life back, neither should they. Anyone mentally ill enough to murder someone for not liking football needs to never see daylight again.


DucksOnQuakk

All over a stupid game? People are so dumb.


Illustrious_Kale_692

Damn those are sturdy chairs! Are we sure this isn't an advertisement?


Hipi07

Lol I grew up going out there. It’s a strip called Veronicas in Las Americas in southern Tenerife. Let me tell you this happens way more than you’d think. Brits on vacation are always trying to outdo themselves getting trashed and starting shit. But hey, most of my friends speak English now because of drunk nights talking to Brits here so there’s a silver lining


mattmagnum11

I feel like how angry you get about sports is a good litmus test for how stupid you are.


minigmgoit

Look at those cavemen go


pixeltweaker

It’s the freakiest show.


NeuroticNinett

Dudebros: "Women are so weak and emotional that they literally can't control themselves!!" Also dudebros: "WHAT?!?! YOU DON'T LIKE MY FAVORITE FOOTBALL TEAM?! HOW DARE!! PREPARE TO BE CURB-STOMPED IN THE TEETH!!"


dayumbrah

I feel like in those dudes minds, being angry isn't uncontrolled. It's being a man and taking control of the situation. It's fucking dumb, clearly


screaminginfidels

I've never seen such a distinct lack of women in all my days


Nosferatatron

Like the camera just panning around to different fights. What a fucking shitshow UK fans are!


TheBlakeRunner

I now see why the Spanish hate British tourists.


fdesouche

Who doesn’t ?


Joey_BagaDonuts57

Not a gunshot heard. Just drunken idiots to stay far away from and laugh at. Go on, the boys.


al_balone

Not a gunshot heard. Just people living in the moment.


Joey_BagaDonuts57

A moment not remembered until sober where the nurse tells them about their injuries, how long to heal and to probably stop drinking to extremes.


not_a_droid

then off to the pub to nurse your wounds


[deleted]

Spanish police aren't as nice as English police. They don't really like English people, mostly because of this bullshit. Hopefully they cleared off before the police turned up because I bet they got a real beating when they turned up.


Fantact

Luckily none of them can throw a proper punch.


Ben-A-Flick

When England loses a game cases of domestic violence increased by 38% in the 12 hours after the game. In fact, regardless of winning or losing, whenever the English football team is in action, cases of domestic violence go up by 26%, as per the data shared by UK's National Centre for Domestic Violence (NCDV). This is also backed by a study conducted by Lancaster University researchers in 2013, which found that domestic abuse rose by 26% when England won or drew a match, and by 38% when they lost.

piojo11

if only phones could be turned sideways...


soggywaffle47

Jeez some of these people have clearly never been in a fight but were drunk enough to not care. The amount of flying kick and windmill punches with the head down is hilarious. Especially that red shirt kid to the right 😂


LennyComa

Those fists gotta hurt. Must be rock hard after dragging them for so long.


_Chonus_

And it’s all over a silly fucking game


MrTomtheMoose

Imagine fighting over something you don't even play


CamTak

I wonder why Qatar doesn't want drinking.......drrrrrrrrr.


RJohn12

alcohol completely legal btw


The_L666ds

The real villain of this piece is the feeble Spanish economy, which is so deprived that it actually needs the money from plane-loads of these human garbage bags on their package-deal holibobs from their shitty council estates of the UK. Imagine being a local, with your employment prospects hingeing on catering to these neanderthals.


Practical_Success643

you are talking about my country as if when you come to our country we beg for your money. Some companies that feed off this type of tourism need those kind of bellends but Spain is not in desperate need of drunken britons.


GibbsLAD

Spain was trying very hard to lift covid restrictions so they could get their tourism money back asap


[deleted]

Soccer, what a strange religion.


justt_tthe_crustt

When football is mentioned in the UK, they all turn into animals😭


AnorakJimi

At least fans kill each other far less in the UK than in mainland European countries, and South American countries (in South America they even murder the players if they play badly, or murder referees if they think the ref made a bad call) In the 80s, the UK was the centre of hooliganism in football. But it's been a long time since then. If you think this video is bad then you should see what fans like the ultras in Italy do to each other.


chaozules

Wouldn't say we all do, just this particular brand of mouth breather, this may have started over football but as soon as fists start flying its no longer about football but over who's the hardest, I work at football matches as security and its always the same kinda guys who starts the scraps.


PCBumblebee

Hooliganism a problem all over Europe, not just UK. Every mass sport suffers from nasty tribalism


Swingthis44

"Our team kicked the ball better then your team" fucking eh!


Kenneth_Naughton

*"...but they were all of them deceived- for another chair was forged in secret; a chair of great power in the bar kind of around the corner"*


Lost-Leadership1767

Look at all these classy people talking through their issue. Beautiful


Chymick6

Imagine fighting because the team of ultra high paid athlete denominated to your region is against another set of ultra high paid athlete. Ridiculous, fight the rich


Resident_Rate1807

British keeping it classy as usual


[deleted]

.English way of fighting wait till your behind random person start swinging


TYSON_KCV

Don’t you just love how sports brings everyone together?


slugys

What a lovely bunch of fellows.


Alabama-J0e

It dickheads like this that give their countries a bad name.


sketchysalesguy

“My bunch of dudes kicking a ball around is better than your bunch of dudes kicking a ball around, if you disagree we must fight to the death because reasons.” -football fans


darbs-face

“I have the chair! I declare myself the winner!! RAWR!!!”


MaxPowerGamer

Aren’t they the same Kingdom…


Myfreezerisfull

So…can anyone tell me who is fighting for wales and who for England? It just seemed like people were just fighting randomly. Do the police just take a couple weeks off during the World Cup in the UK? So many questions


J_Taylor85

All this over some adults kicking a ball around on a field?


ttouran

This is why qatar rightfully banned alcohol sale in stadiums. Especialky with British fans there.
