Depending on the game it is usually 90% of the crowd is rooting for the Sun Devils but Cardinals you usually have fans of the opposing team and that can lead to fights.

I always felt safer at Sun Devil games especially as a kid. First pro Cardinals game I went to someone spilled beer on me as a kid. Fights are getting worse in the crowds of pro football though.
