College-age people are literally the most riotous demographic there is. I remember hearing about riots on American campuses going back to the 18th century. I think a big part of it is just biology.

And sports fans are the 2nd most riotous group. If their team loses the big game, they riot, but if their team wins the big game… well, they also riot.

Put these together and I don’t think there’s a need for probing questions. When I lived near OSU, streets full of flaming couches and dumpsters was a weekly feature of the local news.
