You can see some crazy stuff on Youtube, but this is up there with the most bizarre. FYI, one of the clips cited in this article was removed.

Since his death, Elizalde has been both mourned and mocked online, Sinaloa and Gulf supporters exchanging taunts via YouTube comments. There's even a clip of the deceased Elizalde on the autopsy table, shot with a cell phone by morgue attendants, laughter audible in the background. Whether these online conflicts flare into more real-world violence remains to be seen, but in the meantime it's fascinating to see one man's website become another man's weapon.
