Chileans love their fútbol, and the madness reminded me of when all of Chile united behind their country during the World Cup games. During the games, the streets were virtually empty, as if time had stopped, and then after the wins, the streets came alive, transforming into a confetti-scattered party. So now, I bring you Monday´s memory, in honor of all those who kept me awake last night with their chanting and screaming and incessant horn blowing.
Monday Memories – Soccer in Chile
Last night, two grand rivalries played for the national championship title, Universidad de Chile versus Universidad Católica. U de Chile had a major win, 4 to 1, and the streets filled with U de Chile fans, waving flags down the streets, beeping horns, yelling endlessly. It was crazy, and actually a bit dangerous to be out and about.
