Colo Colo fans in the Metro - Game Day!

Went into the metro again today, looking for the Mercado Central.  It was nice, and I’ll blog about that later.  But the REALLY cool thing was that it’s game day in Santiago!  I wore my Colo Colo shirt, not realizing Colo Colo is playing arch-rival Universidad de Chile today. 


The Subway was crowded, and all the trains packed.  To add to the confusion in the underground, there were roving packs of Colo Colo fans, chanting and singing for hours before the game.  One group saw my shirt, and came over to say hi.  When they saw my video camera, the leader got them all together singing.  It was a great show.  Great energy.  We put the clip on YouTube and a really big file (like, 150MB) with a high res. version of it, HERE.  I hope those guys find it and like it, because they made our day!
