There Are Football Fans,

and there are ones that go the extra mile,


 like a die-hard fan of Turkish soccer club Denizlispor, 37-year-old Ali Demirkaya, a.k.a. ‘Amigo Ali’ is well-known as one of Denizlispor most fanatic supporters, and this weekend he proved his love for the club once again, literally going above and beyond just to see the team play Gaziantepspor, following his involvement in an incident that occurred during one of Denizlispor’s games in 2015, Demirkaya was banned from entering his team’s stadium for one year, well that was not going to let him miss a game, so he spent a few hundred dollars on an industrial crane, climbed onto a man-basket and asked the operator to lift him high up above the stadium, from where he could watch the game, 

 unfortunately, Amigo Ali couldn’t remain in the spotlight for too long as police quickly arrived on the scene and asked the crane operator to lower the soccer fanatic, interestingly, this wasn’t the first time that Ali Demirkaya rented a crane to bypass his ban, 

He did the same thing in February, and police had to bring him down as he was drawing too much attention, at the time, he told fan website Denizlispor20 that he was also considering renting a balloon or a para-glider, so he could watch his team’s matches from above without the police ruining the experience,

but for now here is his crane watching experience.
