The entire city erupted in celebration and it sounded like you were listening to audio from the stadium itself.

I was there in 2014 when they qualified for the final. I have a lot of videos from right after the last PK and then around the city that night, it was wild

Beef, footbal and occasional bouts with insane levels of runaway inflation. What a country!

Worse than that. He is American. He can't stand he is not the center of attention because they are so irrelevant during the world cup.

Remember to feel relevant they have to call their own regional championship "world championship".

Naw man I lived in Buenos Aires for a bit. The beef football and insane inflation isn’t far off.

Beef: I could go to a 5 star restaurant in the middle of Palermo and get an 8oz filet mignon cut for about $14 USD.

I was there in 2014 and the city legit shuts down for football. I went to a BOCA juniors match and had a blast, and went to a WC warmup of Argentina v Trinidad y Tabago. So much fun.

And the inflation is insane. Exchange rates are set by the gov rather than the market, and we would exchange dollars with sketchy street vendors rather than official avenues because they were offering $15/$1 rather than the official rate of $12/$1
