What's up, Doc?
EURO 2008 FREAKSHOW UNDERWAY

EURO 2008 is underway and with it returns the festive tradition of fans wearing goofy hats, face-paint and dime-store wigs.

Yes, the cavalcade of "colorful" European fans supporting their team by dressing up like extras from The Rocky Horror Picture Show is back in front of the world's lens.

We have a male Dutch supporter sporting chandelier-size earrings made out of carrots, a French fan wearing a blue chicken on his head, and an Italian fan with fake ears that dwarf Ross Perot's in a political cartoon.

North American sports fans enjoy putting on some of their favorite team's gear and can tailgate with the best of them, but they avoid getting dressed up to look like Ronald McDonald in a pride parade.

Does Europe celebrate Halloween in June?
