The Dutch have won two games and the fervor is growing. I’m sure it’s even crazy in Switzerland. Apparently wooden prisons (48 of them!) have been built to hold all the “Euro hooligans” that evolve during this time period. For those fans that can’t keep it under control, here’s what they have to look forward to (from Expatica):
There were 7,000 offences and about 9,000 arrests and temporary detentions reported by police at the 2006 World Cup in neighbouring Germany, and Swiss authorities are prepared if trouble arises…It's dark and gloomy inside the cells, which have no windows but a small opening on top to allow 24-hour surveillance through police cameras…Detainees will spend no more than 24 hours in the prison After that, they will either be deported back to their home countries or stand trial in Switzerland.
