What drives football fans to extreme devotion? Imagine a stadium filled with chanting voices, waving banners, and smoke from flares. This is the world of ultras, a subculture born in Italy in the late 1960s. The term 'ultra' means 'beyond,' reflecting their extreme dedication. By the 1970s, ultra culture spread across Europe, characterized by elaborate tifos and intense passion. Despite controversies like hooliganism and political affiliations, most ultras are peaceful, aiming to create an electric atmosphere. What fuels their passion? Share your thoughts in the comments.
