Great Moments in U.S.-China Relations Part 254: The Georgetown Basketball Fight
Via SportsGrid:
An exhibition game between Georgetown and the Bayi Rockets spiraled out of control Thursday, ending with an on-court brawl. According to the Washington Post, the game “deteriorated into a melee during which players exchanged blows, chairs were thrown and spectators tossed full water bottles as Hoyas players and coaches headed to the locker room at Olympic Sports Center Stadium.” Yikes. Here’s the video, and you’ll find a link to the Post’s account below.
