Soccer riots in Brazil claimed the life of a man who was killed by a toilet bowl thrown from the stands at Arruda Stadium, the latest scene of fan violence that has plagued the country in the lead-up to next month's World Cup.
Globoesporte of Brazil reported that rioters ripped three tiolets from the stadium bathroom and tossed them from the stands during Friday night's 1-1 draw between Santa Cruz and Parana. One of the toilets struck a fan identified as 26-year-old Paulo Ricardo Gomes da Silva, killing him instantly.

Gotta hand it to the Brazilians, they have passion!

Well, that is the proper household appliance for that “sport”.
I’m just saying. . .

How big was the backpack that allowed him to smuggle the bowl into the stadium.
‘We’ are so paranoid they won’t allow us to bring a bottle into a stadium.

See? Good thing we have bagchecks at our stadiums. You can never be too safe. No toilet bowl throwing, here!

Actually, rioters ripped three toilets from the stadium bathroom, so they didn’t have to smuggle them in. But you raise a valid point.
