Yesterday, the day of the opening game of the World Cup, I could not help but notice how many people (including myself) were wearing Mexican team jerseys.
At a street corner in the neighboring "colonia" of San Pedro de los Pinos, there was a stand on wheels selling Mexico t-shirts as well as Mexican flags to wave at the games.
I already have four team jerseys, so I did not need to buy another!
I am sure the shirts are counterfeit (as are mine), but how many Mexicans can afford to spend the equivalent of 100 U.S. dollars on a tee-shirt?
