Drink All-Day-Day (Argentina vers.)

Today is the futbol match between Boca Jrs. and River Plate, the two most popular Argentine football teams -- something like 70% of futbol fans support one or the other. Boca is supposed to represent the lower/middle class fans and River Plate is nicknamed Los Millonarios. River has historically kicked Boca's ass, but this year Boca is supposedly a better team so we'll seeeee.

Basically, it's a game for which everyone in the city is extremely pumped, and an excuse for all the Portenos to get drunk in the early afternoon. Seriously, people were drinking beers all over the place while walking down the street at 11 in the morning (no rules about that in this city). I walked in my pajamas into the living room at 10 and my housemates going to the game were finishing off their first forties. Sometimes Buenos Aires makes me miss college.
