Fans Booted From Utah Soccer Game For Waving Flags http://kutv.com/sports/local_story_160181705.html 這是一個趕人的故事.... SALT LAKE CITY - A group of fans who were kicked out of an exhibition soccer game between the Chinese national team and Real Salt Lake say it was because they stirred up a political controversy by waving the flag of Tibet. ``I was really, really shocked. I couldn't believe this was happening in this country,'' said Colin Coker, who was among the small group of fans who were taken out of Rice-Eccles Stadium on Thursday night. 在鹽湖城足球隊vs中國國家隊的一場表演賽中，有一群球迷被主辦單位趕出球場。他們說趕人的原因是他們揮舞西藏的旗幟造成政治僅髒。其中一名叫做科林‧科克的球迷說，他不敢相信這種事會發生在美國。 The fans had been waving the flag of Tibet, the Himalayan region that has been battling China over independence for decades, during the game Thursday night. Some of the Chinese players stepped off the field early in the second half and refused to play again until the flags were put away. 在這場比賽中，他們揮舞著西藏、台灣、還有抗議六四的標誌。中國隊球員憤而離場拒絕繼續比賽。這群球迷後來有把旗幟收起來，不過後來還是忍不住又拿出來。所以他們就被趕出去了。 The fans put away the Tibetan flags, as well as flags of Taiwan and a sign referring to China's Tiananmen Square protest in 1989, but brought them out again later in the game. Coker said he and several other fans were then kicked out of the stadium. Real Salt Lake spokesman Trey Fitz-Gerald said the fans were kicked out for being disruptive. He said they were more focused on harassing the Chinese players than making a political statement. 鹽湖城足球隊的發言人說，這群球迷被趕的原因是因為他們破壞秩序，意圖假政治之名行為行對中國球員騷擾之實。 ``This is a case where we invited this team here, and we were their host, and we needed to be diplomatic,'' Fitz-Gerald said. 他還說，相逢自是有緣，鹽湖城以客為尊。 Coker acknowledged he was partly trying to distract and annoy the Chinese team, but he also wanted to raise awareness about Tibet's fight with China. He said he was considering taking his complaint to the American Civil Liberties Union. 科科說他確實有要擾亂中國隊球員的意思，不過更重要的是要呼籲大家正視西藏的獨立運動。他考慮到相關單位申訴。 -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc) ◆ From: 76.102.70.99
