There are many Easter processions in Malta, but I love especially the ones in Cottonera, where they run with the statue of the Risen Christ and shout at their counterparts in the rivalling town.

For the Dutch: a kind of Feyenoord-Ajax, but much less violent, although sometimes there are a few blows.
