"To throw snowballs at their own team, I didn't think that was a smart thing to do. I guess [they thought] it was funny," defensive tackle Pat Kuntz said after Syracuse upset the Irish 24-23.
South Bend was hit with about 10 inches of snow Friday. While the field had been cleared before the game, there was still snow along the fringes and in some areas of the stands.
Fans at first threw snow in the air, but then quickly switched to tossing snowballs toward the Notre Dame sideline. Defensive lineman Ian Williams got hit in the helmet, defensive end Ethan Johnson was struck on the left cheek and a St. Joseph County police officer on the sideline looking into the crowd got hit in the chest. An NBC camera man also was a frequent target and several snowballs reached the field, although none landed near where play was occurring.
When the Irish defense held a meeting on the sideline, injured linebacker Brian Smith stood on a bench to try to shield his teammates. But when a snowball hit Kuntz, he stood and faced the crowd and appeared to challenge whoever threw it to come down on the field

That is what they would do in Europe if soccer fans did this.
The SEC doesn't have the balls to do it but they should.
tickets for Tennessee. At least they didn't do the Mexican homophobic war chant, which apparently banned their fans from attending the Mexican women's games (on par with what the SEC probably will do).
So what’s wrong with a few thousand water bottles hurled from the stands?
That’s pathetic.
The level of drunkenness at late start times is a serious issue. By far the most unpleasant sports viewing experience of my life was at a night game at a large state university.
