Xiang Chu, living in the Western Han Dynasty, was well-known as the first craziest football fan in history.
According to the Shih Chi, the historical record written by Sima Qian, Xiang Chu was diagnosed to have a serious illness and was told by the doctor to rest himself, but he couldn't restrain himself and went to play cuju, which resulted in his later death.
