Victory in Sarajevo

Riotous fans walking past my building: notice the police on the midle righthand side, keeping order

Football (soccer) has just let out for the afternoon--a string of blaring car horns are announcing the victory of whoever (I'm assuming the more popular Bosnian team), and since I live on the busy intersection where the road to the airport in one direction is also the road to downtown in the other direction, our eardrums are being blasted apart!

Soon the enthused 20-something year old guys will parade down the streets, arm in arm, chanting the victory song, almost violently. It will be quite the experience to see a Bosnian football game; I'm planning to go next week to see it first-hand.
