Begining to think that most of viewers of those "react to european fans" are actually europeans in a little sin of pride, mixed with a thin of guilted superiority feeling 🤭 Once I discover this concept, got to admit i'm sometimes one of these when i'm watching the fifth type of video in a row 😅

Yeah, it has become my favourite pastime

I've been to Euroleague Final Four a few times and happened to sit in Olympiakos (Greece) and Fenerbahce (Turkey) sector. The vibe of those fans is incomprehensible through the video. Whenever their team was playing I literally couldn't help but ask for the lyrics they were singing and join them. They do not chant, they SING throughout THE WHOLE GAME. Much love to european fans, you guys are absolute menaces on the arena.

basketball and football in USA, is like playing in a library, but in Europe it's like playing in the middle of a war...

in regards with the anthem question: Those chants you hear contain specific lyrics written by fans. Most of the chants are writen decades ago, and are passed down from generation to generation. Each team's ultras (at least in my country, Greece) has lots of chants (sometimes even 60-70 different chants, as they constantly develop new ones every now and then) and the lyrics are usually based on fun or wild, hooligan events (and communicate that X fans are way Better than Y funs etc). Other chants contain lyrics that express a nostalgic romantic love for the team and the city. Every team has one official anthem in the form of pop of folk song, usually written, performed and recorded by an artist many many decades ago (my team's anthem was recorded back in 1980, while the first ever anthem in 1930. We usually sing parts of this anthem in the form of chant (maybe the chorus not the entire song). I hope I've helped you, and I hope my english are at least undestandable. *not every single chant is performed on every match, and not every single chant is always popular during the year. Most of the times the popular chants are about 10 and the Ultras organisers decide which chants will be performed (at least most of the times).

10:44 It's the lineup for Euro League in basketball, Red Star Belgrade against CSKA Moscow and the Euro League anthem is actually played but the crowd drown it out completely.

The 1st European vidéo is before the Salonique "derby" (Greece) when the Aris fans welcome the ennemies of Paok The toughest basket ball fans in Europe are in Serbia, Turkey and Greece

It's the same in wolleyball, handball, soccer, ice hockey. Europe tradition🥰

USA - everything revolves around money, Europe - PASSION AND LOVE for our club that we support always and everywhere, whether we win or lose. That's the main difference. in the USA it seems to be important just to appear in the stand, while in EUROPE coming to the stadium means giving your all, your voice and energy to support your club

In the second European game they played in Belgrade. The players were standing there, because the hymn of the Euroleague was playing, but there's no way you can hear it. 😂

We support our team 1000%

The ''greens'' were Panathinaikos they are the greatest basketball club in Europe with many legends one of them was Dominique Wilkins also have the greatest fans and the most scary ( for the others obv).

It's funny seeing Americans reacting to European football and basketball fans because this is so common for us.😅

THANK YOU, the last 3 minutes is what i want, every other video that i saw they just dont stop to talk about what they seen.

In Europe we added sports to our battles. Added a few rules in to help deceide a victor. Then we deceided passion and decibels where the weapons of choise. And we went to war.

Greek over here: Just to explain a few things: First And 2nd European games in the video are Aris vs Paok. Local Greek Derby in Thessaloniki the 2nd biggest city in Greece. Similar Atmosphere it is On football at these games. 3rd game video is Red Star Beligrade vs Cska Moscow for Euroleague. (Cska got out from Euroleague due to War with Ukraine). Red star Beligrade is a well known Serbian Team for their hardcore fans first of all. Partizan the arch enemy of Red star has also really good atmosphere. Last but not least The last team on the video is Panathinaikos and that was at his Latest Euroleague win at 2011 Final vs Barcelona that the final was hosted at 2011 at his home stadium. Honorable Mentions of Good atmosphere teams (No Order): Zalgiris Kaunas from Lithuania Turkish Teams have really good Atmosphere like Galatasaray and Fenerbache (No order to these 2). Efes are slightly quieter. Virtus Bologna From Italy Olympiacos Bc arch enemy of Panathinaikos Partizan from Serbia . There is also an interesting new thing from Euroleague that they count Db on the arena during the game so you can see pretty loud fanbases that I forget to mention. (Euroleague is the biggest European Club Basketball tournament) I mentioned although teams who aren't on Euroleague because they have strong atmosphere in Football for example Galatasaray and Aris BC .

There are a few videos about american basketball players who are telling their stories how it was to play in Europe. Some stories are pretty funny but will you give more of an idea what sports in general means to us in Europe. Although Football is the number 1 sport but Basketball in certain areas is high up there.

Yea, in America they do kiss cams and 6 people in suits doing a dance. Of course the anthem and cheerleaders etc (and I totally respect that). In Europe, I would not be confortable to bring my son in the stadium. As crazy as "soccer" fans but in a closed arena. Just the fires hehe :). But the chants can seem agressive or racist etc... when you look at the lirics, it is actually funny most of the time or just showing their dedication to the club

thats the difference between passion for your traditional team or franchise! in europe we almost live and "die" for our love to that

that's not an anthem, that's a war cry. and that war cry doesn't stop trough the whole game. in Europe that is called a home court advantage

every european team has its anthem but the rest and the most are "war songs" my friend, greek fan here , enjoy...

Another American that lives in a bubble, he has no idea, the way whe live sports in Europe 😂😂, just keep watching those videos, and be amazed 😀😀😮😮🤯🤯🤯

There is a euroleague anthem and players are obligated to stand up,but,Red Star fans from Serbia refuses the song and while anthem is goin on,they try to silence it with their own song and they are doin pretty good job 10:30

nice reaction!!

The third game (the team in white and red) are red star Belgrade from Serbia playing CSKA Moscow in the Euro league. There's supposed to be the Euro league anthem playing but the fans are chanting over it so loud that they've completely drawn out the music playing in the arena.

USA crowd = organised & choreographed by "authorities" Europe crowd = passion

In Europe the Fans are family part of the Club, we dont have franchises we have Teams which are based to the City. So genereations of Fans go to the Stadiums. They write Songs, the Ultra´s make Choreographies for every Game. In Europe sports wont work like the Franchise type in the NFL no one will watch them when they change the city.

In the NBA the standard of Basketball is higher (despite that arguably at least three of the top 5 current NBA players being European), however the European fans (especially in Serbia, Greece & Turkey), win hands down. To be clear the fans are at full volume sometimes hours before the start of the game, & some will burn more calories than the players.

You must watch the fans in hapoel Tel Aviv vs Hamburg

I'm an Italian that now live in US. I'm been a fan (ultras) for long time when I was backl in my hometown in Europe. I experienced now the American fans. American fans has the mentality to go to seat down quiet, relax, enjoy the match with a soda in one hand and the hotdog in the other one, seated next to a rival fan... In Europe is religion, is a way of life, is Honor. We do not go to watch the game (also because sometimes is impossible with all the smoke from the Bengala (smoke bombs) fireworks and general fires hahaha), we go to play the game. We go to war. We go to defend our city from the invaders. We are the 6th player in the basket or the 12th player in the football. American fans get (you guys say lit for for us you are likely cold), when the music in the speakers is great, instead we are the music. Every single team has several songs composed by the fan group which then we sing before, during and after the match. I think that the huge difference come from the History. You guys are young's, really young's. Over there we have thousands of years of History and wars. Europe had tons of wars in the centuries. For us ours team ours colors are inside our blood. Comparing USA fans vs European fans, our best part is that, this passion make us so loud, aggressive and intimidating. Your best part is that you can go to the Stadium/Arena and enjoy the match also with kids and families. In Europe going to the Stadium could means ends up to the Emergency room or even in the morgue in some cases when plays an important match like the 2 rival teams or the 2 team that play for the same city. In some cases we do not take kids to watch a match. We are too much. Die for a sport match is not really smart right...

Not a anthem...its Aida, opera.

Dude and Europe they play both versions of basketball the original and today moderation

I think most Europeans would find it strange and awkward to sing their National Anthem at a national championship.

It is not an Anthem. Are songs written from the fan group to the team and the City.

Watching European professional basketball is like watching the MLS for NBA fans (footie fans will know what I mean) It would be AMAZING to have NBA talent with European style support
