Spaniards have the dubious honor of having the most racist soccer fans in europe. monkey sounds when black players touch the ball and throwing bananas into the field.

I've read about stuff like that being done in the UK as well. When Ewing was at Georgetown, opposing "fans" threw bananas on the court. Some countries are more open about it but racism is everywhere, unfortunately.
