Subject: RE: BS: European Violence
I gather in Poland where there's quite a history of football violence (including people getting killed at times), hostilities were suspended after the Pope died, with the fans and players from rival clubs turning all friendly towards each other - Letter from Poland, Polonia Radio

In fact, according to our Polish priest, things may have gone too far that way - apparently there was a spate of own gaols in the matches the day after JP's funeral.
