Gated off
below the
scoreboard are
a few thousand
porra, Mexico’s
brand of foot-
ball hooligans.
The Tijuana
clan formally
calls itself
“La Masakr3,”
chanting
crassly above
the tune of
incessant brass
and drums and
amid a storm
of red and
black fl ags. The
sky rains stale
beer whenever
a Xolo scores,
and anyone’s
welcome to
join in the
desmadre, as
long as they’re
in on the color
scheme and
willing to jump
and scream
the entire
90 minutes.
¡XOOOOOOL!
