Is Futbol in Mexico A Sacred Experience? Posted on January 16, 2012 by Andrew Arellano Reply Did you know that fútbol became popular in Mexico because religious groups promoted it amongst their students? In this 17-minute video, which has an honors thesis-esque style, we look into how the experience of going to a match in Mexico or even playing fútbol has become a sort of sacred experience. Touching on aspects of religion such as idolatry, connection to one another through ritual, expressions of fandom, and things that hold symbolic meaning through being a fan, this is an well-researched video. Dare I use the word enlightening? Share this:TwitterFacebookEmailGoogle +1TumblrPinterestRedditLike this:Like Loading...
