Okay guys I support without a doubt The Strongest, I lived in bolivia for my first five years. Before I moved to the states, I only have two memories of bolivia. They both happen the year I moved to the states in 85. First one is the trip here, the second was my first The Strongest vs Cholivar match. We lived a few blocks away from Siles, and I remember my old man getting his radio dragging me by my hand to the stadium. We walked up the concrete steps of silies en la curva sur. I remember siting in the cold concrete seats and seeing the green grass on the stadium, and then hearing the mixed of boo’s and mainly cheers as both teams came up the steps and onto the field my dad showed me the most wonderful colors gold and black, and I remember some old man coming towards the seats and yelling out the most exciting words it was the war cry that would change me forever. And for a second there was silence and then like a tiger I felt the world around me shake as the crowd roared back the war cry. That emotion was with me for years. Until I heard it again in 90 or 91 I remember that’s the first year a Bolivian team had ever played in the us. We went to some small stadium I want to say it was GMU, but I don’t remember exactly where. But I was like 11 and I went with my old man. It was The Strongest playing against the Salvis. I think it was Aguila. And then again I heard the war cry. However we left with disappointment as we lost. Rumor was that some hard core tigre fans took the team out the night before and got the whole team drunk. I also support Universitario, mainly because I like the underdog. And also because my mom is from sucre. I also support DC, not like I use too but, I do try to catch a game here and there, And I definitely go to the stadium to watch a game here and there.
As you probably know, I was born in Beni but I am a loyal fan of Wilstermann. Not to bore with the details, but my grandmother (also born in Reyes, Beni), remarried a doctor from Cochabamba a few years after my grandfather passed away, and way before I was born. They soon after moved to Cochabamba. My brother and I used to spend our winter vacations (summer here) with them, and my step-grandfather would take us to the team's practices and Sunday games. He was a true fanatic. I got to meet Jairzinho, when he was the team' sensation (yes, the same Jairzinho who won the world cup with Pele), along with other awesome players like Issa, Bengolea, Romerito, Arias, etc. After my step-grandfather died, my brother and I decided to honor his legacy by continuing to be Wilstermanistas in his name. To this day, my best memories are there...en la cancha #6 del Capriles.
