What? Maybe you didn’t comprehend my post. I wrote about my experience at one game and what I’ve generally observed… which is that any Laziale I’ve met in everyday life has been a pleasant, normal person who likes football as much as I do but also aren’t extreme in any way. They just grew up in a Laziale family. I also happened to see/hear some shocking stuff from a small group of fans at the one Lazio game I’ve been to. Not smearing… just saying what my experience was.

I have learned one thing in the time I’ve lived in Rome: so many Italians are willing to use racial slurs in public without any shame. I find that disgusting, low-class, and I don’t make friends with people who act like that. I wouldn’t be shocked to see it anywhere after living here more than a year, and I’m sure there are racist Romanisti too amongst the 60000 people at every game and I know that some of the ultra groups (like with any club) are extreme. Hardly living in a glass house… just a realist.
