Warning to World Cup fans. The following will get you jail time in Germany:

Nazi salutes
Goose-stepping or doing Basil Fawlty Nazi impressions
Chanting "Two World Wars and One World Cup"
Wearing joke Nazi helmets or any 'offensive' insignia

"We are prepared to use our police powers to hold fans for up to two weeks without charge if we feel they are a threat to public safety and order."
