I added the two templates to the section of the article regarding 'association football' because they clearly only concern British events and are slanted towards the last few years. I also fear there may be a few too many mentions of unexceptional incidents in the article (and I swear I don't recall a pitch invasion after Hull v Man United last season though that may be because the trauma of hearing Phil Brown sing on the TV has caused my brain to erase the memories of that afternoon).
I can't say I have have many specific details to be honest but surely pitch invasions must have taken place outside England and Scotland mustn't they? I think this section would be massively improved if a few international examples were mentioned. In the meantime, I hope nobody minds if I remove some of the less notable unsourced examples.

talking about pitch invasions and not saying anything about Jimmy Jump, who raided over football champions league, euro cups finals, rugby world cup final, french open (tennis) final, etc. Sucks. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.184.220.67 ( talk) 22:46, 18 June 2010 (UTC)

The US section should really use "field" rather than "pitch". No American sport is played on a "pitch". Much as the basketball section uses the word "court", as is appropriate. Huw Powell ( talk) 02:38, 21 April 2011 (UTC)
Not sure if this deserves inclusion, but at the Australian Grand Prix at albert park, fans have been known to flood the track after the winner crosses the line. A dangerous practice. Thankfully, no one has yet been hit by a later car doing so. Not sure if this happens at other grand prix races. 203.45.95.236 ( talk) 12:45, 8 January 2012 (UTC)
No, don't and its thing that happens after the pride lap. mascale track invasion during race would result in disaster similar to the le Mans Diasaster in 1955. DoctorHver ( talk) 20:08, 30 November 2012 (UTC)
Change so insignificant it's hardly worth mentioning,,,
The article says in the "Texas vs Texas Tech, 2008" portion that the fans stormed the field the second of three times after the extra point. It was actually after the replay ref said that Crabtree had stayed inbounds.

As the title says. Please read WP:ISNOT for more info, specifically things like WP:NOTNEWSPAPER and WP:NOTINDISCRIMINATE. I don't think we need endless lists of pitch invasions that have taken place, half of which are not actually very "famous", slanted towards current events and taking up large chunks of the article as to make it almost unreadable. I think what we actually need is a description of what a pitch invasion is, how and why they generally happen, the laws and rules that apply to them in different parts of the world and for different sports. And possibly a section for each sport if there are significant differences, but not the endless lists that we have at the moment. I am going to go ahead and start making some changes soon.
