00:00She's not born in River, she's not born in Argentina, she's from Ecuador, but she sees that she's in love with these colors.
00:10We are in the Paseo de la Fama in Los Angeles and we are going to meet Pato,
00:14who has traveled throughout the United States to go to River.
00:19Hello, Pato.
00:20How are you?
00:21How are you?
00:22Are you ready for the Paseo de la Fama?
00:24Of course, we are going to be a little bit of your passion.
00:27Let's go.
00:28Pato, tell me a little bit about how all this love for River?
00:32Oh, well, the love for River is from all my life.
00:34My father brought me to the field when I was very young.
00:38I played for a long time at the football club, when I was little.
00:41In River?
00:42Yes, I learned to play the football there when I was little.
00:45At the stadium, in the field, with ex-players who taught us.
00:49Do you remember a ritual with your father of seeing the games?
00:54Something that keeps being very present?
00:57The ritual most beautiful, that I will never forget, is to go all the weekends,
01:01or, well, on the weekends, to the stadium.
01:03Bajarse in Núñez, near the stadium monumental of River.
01:06Bajarnos from the train and walking by the sidewalk.
01:09And you are going to meet, like we are today, with the teammates of River,
01:13marches to the stadium.
01:14And to see the game from the Centenario Baja.
01:17The truth is that, for years doing that.
01:20And then doing it with my friends, with the big ones.
01:22The ritual is that, to go to the stadium.
01:24Yes.
01:25What is your first important trip that you remember?
01:27That you said, what do I do or not do?
01:30I go.
01:31Why River?
01:32The first big trip was to Japan in 2015.
01:35The final with Barcelona, the magic Barcelona Barcelona with Messi.
01:41That we won 3-0.
01:43It was a dance.
01:44But I don't forget it.
01:45And this is the other crazy, right?
01:46The country.
01:47The passion for football is also united to the people around you.
01:50So, you could be with a girl who is from Boca.
01:54Well, we would have fought.
01:56But, unfortunately, my wife is a river.
02:00She is not born in River.
02:01She is not born in River.
02:03She is not born in Argentina.
02:04She is from Ecuador.
02:05But she sees that she is enamored of these colors.
02:07How do you know?
02:08She is enamored of these colors.
02:10I don't oblige a anyone.
02:11But she sees that she is contagious.
02:12She is contagious of the colors more linds that there are.
02:14We committed in Seattle.
02:16Okay.
02:17Precisely in Seattle.
02:18Exactly.
02:19Hace 2 years.
02:20And then, when River jugo here, I said to me, my love, I am going to be a river where
02:25we were going to be a rest of our first year of Casados in the first year of Casados.
02:28It was the first year of Casados here.
02:29At first, I was really extravagant a little.
02:30It was a little too, couldn't you?
02:31But.
02:32There was a way!
02:33Well, it was a way.
02:34It was a way!
02:35There was a way of such a romance.
02:36Yeah, I think.
02:37Kindly I didn't notice that it was so good.
02:38I was looking for a river to play there.
02:39At the stadium, Seattle.
02:40Ha, it was really nice.
02:41I'm not stating the same thing.
02:42It was interesting.
02:43It was the question.
02:44Well, this American adventure with your wife, which has converted to River.
02:48Well, the funny thing was when I told you, my love, we go on June 17th, and he looks at Seattle and says,
02:54oh, yes, it's the day that we met, and I said, it's true, that's why we're going, and because he's playing River.
03:01But no, the truth is that she was even more dressed than River than I even, with the shirt, with the shirt, with the pants,
03:09he chose to buy a river jersey and everything, so I think, with victory, with victory, well, if it was the first time that we saw a river, we won't win, it was a problem, but it's the love for the colors, it's the time.
03:22Well, Pato, it's time to go to the game, it's very little to start the game between River and Monterrey, let's go to the stadium.
03:31Well, Pato, finally we arrived at the stadium.
03:37Are you ready to live in an Argentinian football party and River Plattenes?
03:40I'm ready.
03:41Well, we're in the Rose Bowl, ready for the second game of River in this World Cup, tell me, because the first one, you also did there.
03:49Yes, of course, I was in Seattle with my wife, we traveled from Miami, and now, well, she's waiting for me in Seattle, and I went for the day, for a day, I'm going to take two planes in less than 20 hours to see a River, but here we are.
04:02And that it is worth it.
04:03Yes, of course.
04:04I'll leave you there in peace.
04:05You can enjoy your game, and the pre-partition, especially.
04:08So, with all that, with the people, with the people, I'm seeing my family and friends.
04:11Thank you, Pato.
04:12Thank you, Pato.
04:13We'll see you.
04:14And this was one of the most testimonies of what the football can move, passion, love, and even through countries to be able to see the club.
