Yankees and Red Sox fans have a long and storied history of doing terrible things to one another any chance they get. And they're still at it: Deadspin pointed us to the videos below, which show a female wearing a Red Sox hat brawling with Yankees fans in Section 328...during a Yankees/Tigers game. Skip to 1:15 in the first video to see the blows (and we strongly recommend putting down your volume). more ›

Tim Tebow, we warned you that New Yorkers hate you. But Tim Tebow got his first taste of NYC haterade during the Yankees-Angels game yesterday, when he was at Yankee Stadium. more ›

A week after Philadelphia authorities released a video seeking suspects who beat a Rangers fan, a NJ man has turned himself in. Dennis Veteri, 32 (pictured), was charged with two counts each of aggravated assault, conspiracy aggravated assault, simple assault and reckless endangerment, according to Philly.com. more ›

After a Williamsburg local dashed off a colorful open letter to the Open Space Alliance regarding the "lawless drug nightmare" that "erupted on [the] street after Saturday night's Widespread Panic" concert, we talked to two attendees for their side of the story. And lo and behold, it's a little bit different and a lot lighter on the zombie imagery. more ›

This is depressing. This morning Chris Brown performed on the Today show, where fans had been lined up and camped out for days to catch a glimpse of his performance. One man on Twitter noted, "They're comparing the line for Chris Brown's Today show appearance to a Harry Potter midnight screening." Except with Harry Potter everything is magical, and with Chris Brown everything seems to be abusive and homophobic. more ›

Yesterday afternoon Justin Bieber dropped by Macy's to visit with fans and sell them on his new scent, Someday, but things turned ugly once the pop star decided to divert from his plan. The Biebs took an unplanned trip outside of the Herald Square store to wave to around 500 fans who couldn't get in. (Great idea!) The NYPD had set up barricades, but the fans broke through them once they caught a glimpse of the little guy. When that happened the NYPD ordered him back inside, but one of his own security—47-year-old Moshe Benabou—either ignored the order, or got in the way. He was later cited for disorderly conduct. more ›

Fans are outraged, upset, hurt, and scared by what happened to the young Justin Bieber just hours ago. The pop star was "attacked" by a man outside of Macy's, where he was promoting his perfume. You can check it out here on video, from eight floors up. At press time, Bieber hasn't Tweeted, but his fans have, and they're serving up some ALL CAPS lexical gold. Check some out some of the top Tweets below, and hopefully the crazed bloodthirsty fans have now heard it's all been one big misunderstanding. more ›

The Jet Blue flight attendant who dramatically departed from his post yesterday by declaring over the intercom: "To the fucking asshole that told me to fuck off, it's been a good 28 years!"... clearly made his intentions known. Steven Slater then double-fisted some beers and slide down the emergency chute he activated, along with his bags. more ›

In a sign that children may finally be coming to their senses, many young Miley Cyrus fans say they aren't happy with the direction the pop star is going. At 17, Cyrus is ditching her innocent image for a darker, sexier look, evidenced by the cover of her latest album, Can't Be Tamed. But her younger fans don't get it. Perry Hamm, 11, told the Times, "I feel like she acts 25. She looks so old. She is too old for herself." Take notes, Bieber. more ›

Bright n' early this morning, almost too early for such a spectacle, Lady Gaga's monster masses converged on Rockefeller Plaza for a free show as part of the Today show's concert series. If you missed it, or even if you were there and somehow survived the madness (at least two fans were taken away by EMS), here's a little audio/visual recap! more ›

Where's the animated siren gif when you need it: Avoid Rockefeller Plaza this morning! You'd think Justin Bieber were in town or something. But the record-breaking Today show crowd has congregated for Lady Gaga, who will be performing later this morning. more ›

When we interviewed Shudder to Think's Craig Wedren last year, he told us when his band opened for Pearl Jam the record label "literally rented [the bands] an entire island off of Sydney... with wildlife, cooks, parasailing, surfing, and girls." Oh how times have changed! Today it's being reported that Atlantic Records/Warner Music Group is asking fans to help fund one of their artist's second albums. The major label artist Natty is the lucky guinea pig, and fan-funding platform Pledge Music will help out in asking for some spare change. Earlier this year WMG's CEO Lyor Cohen put his $28MM Upper East Side townhouse on the market. Is this all part of the major label death rattle? more ›

It's a nightmare over in Long Island City for residents who live near the cacophonous MTA exhaust fans that clear air from the 7 train tunnel when work's being done. And there is a lot of work to be done, now and forever—there's not even any 7 train service between Queens and Manhattan for the next billion weekends because of the repairs. People complain they can't sleep because of the fans, which sound like a jet engine before takeoff or, as the Times puts it, "a giant rattle shaken at great speeds." more ›

After flipping off some folks at a mixed martial arts event in Miami—and being caught doing so on camera—Jets coach Rex Ryan was fined $50,000 by the team. According to the Daily News, "The size of the fine shows that the organization was embarrassed and upset by Ryan's behavior." more ›

Lady Gaga has officially taken over her home town, setting up shop Wednesday night to play four shows at Radio City Music Hall. So far there have been reports of everyone from P. Diddy to Donald Trump to Barbara Walters (Lady Wawa?) in the crowd amongst the performer's beloved monsters. And people are really going crazy over these shows — laying down serious cash for tickets, taking off their pants, belting out their best ear-piercing screams as the Fame Monster arrives at shows, and even donning orbital headresses in homage. But it's not all fun and glitter, today the NY Press reports back about one fan's beatdown over tickets. more ›

Incase you took the advice of the New York Times today and decided to finally embrace MTV's Jersey Shore, it may interest you that some of the cast is currently walking around in plain sight right here in NYC (they recruited Michael Cera to their circle earlier). Some fans went on a mission, following Snooki and Pauly D's Twitters, and tracked them down! There should be a prize for whoever gets their photos taken with all cast members after successfully stalking them through the streets of Manhattan. But really what fascinates us about this photo is how unnatural they look in winter clothes — where are the tans, the abs, the ridiculous clothing? It's so sad how their fist-pumping hands are so cold they need to keep them pocketed... we barely recognize these people. more ›

An off-duty NYPD officer was arrested Sunday night after waving his gun at a group of rowdy, belligerent Rangers fans. For some reason, that's a crime, and Officer David Hendrick, a 16-year veteran assigned to the Manhattan Task Force, faces a felony charge of criminal possession of a weapon and a lesser charge of menacing. MTA cops stopped the Ronkonkoma-bound train in Mineola after several frightened passengers called 911 to report that a man had brandished a gun. more ›

It's good to know the NYPD is totally on top what is surely the most important situation to hit this city in quite some time: Rob Pattinson mania. The Twilight star has caused the biggest stir since Beatlemania, and according to IrishCentral, the police here have declared, "Enough is enough. His security people aren't up to the task of keeping him safe, and they have no idea how to deal with the crowds this guy attracts." The unnamed cop goes on to say that dealing with Pattinson is like "amateur hour" for them (that's called a burn, vampire)—they say they "have celebrities a lot bigger than this guy who can come and go in perfect safety because we know how to take the right precautions. We have presidents and kings come and go. This poor kid can't get in or out of a car without things getting dangerous." But kings don't have what the cops call "Twiheads" following them around, who allegedly have confronted the actor and cut themselves so they can bleed for him. [via Gawker] more ›

While the Rangers have a chance to beat the Washington Capitals this afternoon and advance in the playoffs, they'll be doing it without coach John Tortorella. During the third period of the Blue Shirts' 4-0 loss to the Caps on Friday night, Tortorella got into an altercation with a fan right behind the bench that culminated in the coach squirting water on a fan and throwing a water bottle into the stands, which hit a bystander. Tortorella was suspended; Newsday reports, the NHL "probe found that Tortorella squirted a fan before he himself was doused with a beverage." The Post notes that Tortorella "was intercepted and eventually calmed down by assistant coach Jim Schoenfeld... the only other head coach in NHL history to have been suspended for a playoff game." (Schoenfeld, when coaching the Devils, was accused of pushing a referee after a 1988 Stanley Cup playoff game; Schoenfeld yelled—video— "Good, 'cause you fell, you fat pig! Have another doughnut! Have another doughnut!.") Tortorella told reporters that he was asked by his bosses not to comment about the matter. more ›
