November 19, 2004 – Maybe the most notorious moment in NBA history began when Ben Wallace, frustrated with his team losing to the Pacers, started a mini-brawl between the players on court. Ron Artest actually stepped away from the whole scene, until he was hit with a drink by a Pistons supporter. Then all hell broke loose.

Kobi Moosa – Drop Kicking Invading fan

A rare inclusion from the Israeli Premier League but a worthy one – In the derby match between Maccabi Tel Aviv and Hapoel Tel Aviv an Hapoel fan ran into the pitch, throwing a flare into the Maccabi fans’ stand. Kobi Moosa couldn’t let that pass and dropped-kicked the hooligan.

The Boston Bruins – The Brawl at Madison Square Garden

December 23, 1979 – After the Bruins’ Stan Jonathan was hit in the face with a rolled up program and Terry O’Reilly had his stick stolen by Rangers fans, numerous Bruins players went over the glass and started a huge brawl with the fans.
