So one of the first things I did here was go to see Lucha Libre at El Coliseo de Guadalajara. Like with soccer, lucha libre spectators get mad rowdy. I went with a large group of gringos to watch lucha libre, mostly güeras. So, we attracted a lot of attention as did any woman that stood up to use the restroom or grab a beer. Cameras were being confiscated at the door, so I snuck mine between my pairs of Ds, and I attempted to take pictures between the wire fencing with care not to get caught.
Below is some reflection made on the experience
Lucha libre
Rey Misterio, El Santo y Mil Máscaras
vestidos en pantalones apretados
botas hasta las rodillas
de colores brillantes
de color rosa
pero super rosa
con el mohawk del mismo color
y los aficionados con sus porras
porras hechas a todos
a la gente de abajo
los ricos
los fresas
al muchacho que se paró a dar el medio dedo
ese
el chino
vestido en verde
los de arriba
los pobres en el bálcon
a los putos
a los pendejos
a las putas que se dan vueltas
a los americanos
gringos, güeros, hijos de Bush
a los jotos que perdieron
a los mismos mexicanos haciendo porras a todos

Cuz,
Isn't it ridiculously hilarious how the crowd calls out the gringos! Did they Luchadores call out the Americans in the crowd? When I went they did and the whole building was shouting "Pinche Gringos! Pinche Bush!" and they wouldn't stop unless the person would stand up and turn a 360.
haha... good times.
love peace.
