Persebaya Surabaya (Persatuan Sepakbola Surabaya) is an Indonesian soccer team located in Surabaya, East Java. In 2006, Persebaya played in the First Division of Liga Indonesia and now back to the top league of Liga Indonesia.

The supporters of Persebaya are known as Bonek (Bondo Nekat). They are known for their eccentric way of supporting Persebaya. They usually go by train with small budget to the opponent's homebase. The great thing of Bonek is their loyalty to Persebaya. They always stay and support Persebaya by causing all sorts of riots and fights with the opposing teams' supporters.
