RCB finally won the IPL after 18 long seasons. Fans should have been dancing in the streets, celebrating every run, every memory.
But instead, June 3 became a Black Day. Because 11 fans never made it back home.
Twitter, Instagram, YouTube — the reaction was loud and clear. People weren’t just upset, they were heartbroken and angry.
“First time in IPL history, fans had to die for a team’s win.”
“18 seasons, jersey no. 18, 11 dead — this victory feels cursed.”
“Even God didn’t want this win to happen.”
The name “Chokli” once just a meme, is now part of angry posts. The old “slipper thief” joke? Not funny anymore. It’s being used to show how some feel this win came with blood on it.
Thousands of fans turned up to see their heroes. Some had tickets, some didn’t. But the gates got blocked. The crowd swelled. Police panicked. Lathis came out. People started running. And that’s when the stampede began.
A 14-year-old schoolgirl. A college student. An engineering boy wearing an RCB jersey. All gone. Just because they showed up to cheer for a team they loved.
“Virat Doesn’t Even Show His Kids’ Faces… And You Brought Yours?”
This one post is being shared everywhere:
“Virat Kohli never even reveals his kids’ faces to the public. But you brought your kids into this mad crowd?”
Virat knows the madness of fan culture. He protects his kids from it. But fans… they brought toddlers to a jam-packed stadium. Some didn’t even make it inside.
What were they thinking? Broken bones. Dead loved ones. Regret. Nobody is saying RCB planned this — but fans feel let down.
BCCI said “it wasn’t our event.” Police blamed the crowd. The crowd blamed the police.
And in the middle of all this, 11 families will never be the same again.
Now, some voices on social media — mostly from Dhoni and Rohit fans — are taking it even further. “Ban RCB,” they’re writing.
“It doesn’t matter if they win or lose, their fanbase brings nothing but madness.” Some are even calling it a cult, not a cricket team.
They say this isn’t passion anymore — it’s chaos. “Matches feel like riots, not celebrations,” one post read.
Another said, “Even if CSK or MI lose, this kind of tragedy never happens. RCB should be banned before cricket turns into a crime scene again.”
