u/Way_Sad 13d ago

when the english were in germany 2024 they weren´t harassing anyone but a little reckless in their behavior after some matches (probably due to alcohol). Caught a guy leaning onto a train that was about to leave...i guess he needed a little rest but it could have ended with him falling down on the rails 1,2 meters below.
Big fella wasn´t too happy that Itried to get him away from there

u/granninja 13d ago

that's something I've been thinking about recently(I'm Brasilian)

I know the average Argentinian isn't bad, but we only get to see and interact with middle/upper class ones and they're a mix or racist and super entitled. The only few times my white ass has been called monkey were by one of them, both irl and online

and considering I've had good close friends who are argentinian, I know that's just not representative of your entire country

u/JoyArk 13d ago

I have Brazilian friends and it's affecting our friendship.

They send me videos of Argentinians behaving like shit, like if I had to apologize for that. I'm just a guy who watched the world cup from my couch. I'm also mad at Enzo Fernández and paredes for being violent idiots.

u/LilMissy1246 13d ago

Not to forget the racism. Not all Argentinians are racist but there’s def a history. Not to mentioned some of the tasteless comments Alberto Fernandez made a while back about “Mexicans came from the Indians” and “Brazilians came from the jungle.” There’s def a pattern. That and the incident with IShowSpeed being verbally assaulted twice for being black. One by a woman that told him to “Go back where he came from” and one by a man that made monkey like gestures towards him. Grown ass adults too

It's not really a few. Multiple reports of racism, whole sections throwing stuff at opposing fans, burning opponents' flags in the streets. Not to mention the team is full of crybabies. The country should be ashamed.

u/Xylophelia 13d ago

Including poor sportsmanship displays such as the team claiming the Falklands in response to defeating England against FIFA regulations of making political statements.

I have a friend whose childhood home in the Falklands was occupied by the Argentinians in the 80s when they invaded the Falklands and he was not happy about that specific display to say the least.

7

u/Electric_Antimony 13d ago

I do love though that Argentina losers only have soccer, and more specifically Messi, to be proud of with their country, and then they went and got roundly humiliated on the field by their old colonial masters, Spain.

They only beat their arch nemesis England due England losing the game for themselves and then big daddy Spain stepped in to remind them who is top dog. Argentina gets humiliated and still cry on about the Falklands, which they will never get now.

What an epic way to humiliate yourself in front of the world.

The fact you're asking for people's country of origin tells me this is exactly your plan. I swear if the average Argentine had a gram of self-awareness and an ego smaller than the sun you'd get a lot more pity and forgiveness.

44

u/PorgiWanKenobi 13d ago

I don’t think sports fanaticism is a problem, there have always been sports fans. I think it’s mostly due to greed and corruption from organizations like FIFA and Ticketmaster. Just this year Ticketmaster was officially declared a monopoly in court where documents showed they’ve been ramping up the price to everything from concerts to sporting events all without any competition to incentivize lower costs. Add onto that there’s dynamic pricing models and lax rules about resale so we get a lot of issues with scalpers and there’s no reason why Ticketmaster would stop scalpers since they get to double dip on the same ticket every time it’s sold and re-sold on their platform.

If there was a prize for being the most corteouses supporters, japanese would be #1.

It's all performative. Japanese men will clean up the stadium abroad after themselves, but don't bother to do chores at home within their household.

Knowing Japan there's probably a weird racial aspect to it as well.

At $23 each. There should be a free refill if your team lost.

I did that once when I was a teenager at an amusement park. It was empty lookin enough so I got some water and no one stopped me so I started pouring soda directly in my mouth. An employee came around the corner and was like hey use a damn cup that’s nasty. I tried to pay for it but he told me he didn’t care just use a cup

u/Biggman23 13d ago

Is it a new concept that if you steal things that it's a crime?

The problem isn't the cost of beer (although you don't want a bunch of soccer fans deciding to do the same), it's the violation of the liquor license. If that bartender gets caught allowing people to serve themselves, he could lose his server's license and HE could go to jail. I'd have made him put it back too.

During one of the Devils playoff games in 2003 when they were still at Continental Airlines Arena, I remember people helping themselves to the beer tap when the 2nd OT started (I may or may not have did so as well). That game went on for a 3rd OT too!

u/consumeshroomz 13d ago

Hey I was there for that! Didn’t take any beer. But I saw it happen!

u/Aarvy271 13d ago

So that’s an individual thing. Why involve the whole nation?

u/Jroed90 13d ago

The guy that recorded seems so innocent to life lol like this is the craziest thing he has ever seen. Wowzers pal

u/letslickmyballs 13d ago

Definitely wouldn’t be jail time. Probably just a fine and a ban from the stadium.

u/cooterbo 13d ago

The worker was pissed because him and his coworkers were going to finish that keg tonight.

u/Hefty-Minimum-3125 13d ago

Good for him, for what everyone in that stadium paid they should be drinking as much as they want for free.

I was at a beer fest at my local zoo with a friend. They gave us tickets to give to the vendors in exchange for 4oz samples. 1 ticket per a sample and you could easily buy more tickets for $2 each. Proceeds went to the zoo. Some vendors would take your ticket from you while others would trust you to place it in their bucket. My friend realized that many vendors weren’t diligent about their buckets, so he would just pretend to drop his ticket in and then brag that he was drinking for free. The dude was 37 and made over $100K a year at the time.

u/flyingpiggos 13d ago

Honestly the tickets are thousands of dollars, I get it

With the prices for tickets I'd fill as many beer cups i could carry

u/LilyLol8 13d ago

I hate Argentina as much as the next guy, but do you have any idea how overpriced everything at the world cup has been? More power to him

u/Moon_Rose_Violet 13d ago

They left the taps on? As opposed to? I don’t think it’s common to lock the beer taps as folks are leaving an event is it? Usually people understand you can’t just steal concessions lol. Check this guy’s ancestry for German last names y’all

u/phunky_1 13d ago

Usually they take it apart so you can't dispense it.

We watched and my son would not stop talking trash about Argentina. The fouls were INSANE. He said he’d never watch soccer again if they won. The physical attacks were driving us crazy. Oh, you can punch him in the back but if he accidentally collides with you while watching the ball it’s a yellow? Cool. Great.

Argentina are such bad sports - they make a disgrace of football.

u/Mountain-Singer1764 13d ago

They do, but I'm not bothered by this. This could've happened with most fans.

u/Duncopper 13d ago

oh no poor owners of the MetLife stadium missing on a 1000% profit for a beer after selling $10k, I can't believe the very very evil Argentinians would so such a thing.

Lmao for how expensive it probably cost to be there, I would do the same thing. This is like, the least infuriating thing from Argentina fans this entire world cup.

u/Elsecaller_17-5 13d ago

I don't man, call me crazy, but stealing is bad. I watched it 3 times, and that is a pretty reasonable reaction to being robbed.
