Dodgers – Giants Rivalry: 1883 – Forever
All of us and our parents were born into a rivalry between the Dodgers and the Giants, which started back in 1883. Naturally, most fans take the initiative to assume this is a rivalry is between the fans as well. This is perfectly fine in most cases and adds a little flavor to the match-ups each year these two teams face one another.
2011 Opening Day was no exception!
It started with a few friendly banners:
Later on a few fans were offended and decided to fight (check the video):

After the game, 2 Dodger fans decided the only thing missing from this Dodger victory, was a victory of their own, attacking 3 Giants Fans. Unfortunately, we don’t have a video of this incident, but it wouldn’t surprise me if something surfaced.
Feel like you missed out?? Grab some tickets for tonights game and have a chance to see the Dodgers challenge the Giants under the lights. Post game fireworks, with a possibility of another fight under the lights.
Giants have helped the rivally along in recent years with their continued antics including Brian Wilson on Casey Blake. I’m not down for pummeling someone with a different jersey than Dodgers but if you disrespect the Dodgers…you called out the hounds!
