After breaking down, researching and writing articles (1 & 2) about Arizona's new immigrant law for the best part of the day, here's some welcome humour about the topic.
It not 100% relevant to a blog about Mexico in the World Cup, it's not even that new (Jan) but it does involve the best player of Mexico's biggest rivals ... and it's funny.
The video below from Mexican TV shows 'gringo' Landon Donovan trying to sneak across the border into Mexico in search of a fortune.
“Soy mexicano,” says Donovan in heavily accented Spanish. “No you're not," says the border patrol as he rips off Donovan's moustache. "You’re Landon Donovan.”
Donovan then explains that it’s easier to win the football lottery in Mexico than in the United States because there are less teams.
"Easier for me, not for you," replies the guard. "Get out of here!"
Donovan scuttles back towards the U.S. side of the border, but not before letting out a cry of "culero," which basically means ... well, you can find the meaning here.
