A Christmas Thai Premier League playoff match between Nakhon Pathom and Sisaket didn't exactly live up to the spirit of the season when fans beat up and pulled a gun on the match officials. Tempers were riled when the referee started to get card-happy and the breaking point was when a single, shirtless loon stormed the pitch, only to be dealt with by police.
Those same police proved no match for the gang of invaders who followed, though. They stood around like goons while the officials took flying kicks and punches from all sides before finally fleeing the madness.
Of course, the vast majority of Thailand doesn't celebrate Christmas, so the irony of this happening on the holiday is probably something they don't much care about. Still, I doubt Buddha would've been too happy with this, either.
