bottle throwing
Hurling glass containers
Bottle throwing is the act of hurling a bottle, typically as a hostile gesture at sporting events, concerts, or protests.
A thrown bottle—whether glass or plastic—can injure performers, players, or officials, and often prompts security responses or event stoppages: The match was delayed after bottle throwing from the stands.
The phrase sometimes describes a pattern of crowd behavior rather than a single incident.
