Our New Football Team

We'll always be Rapids fans, but once we get to our neighborhood of San Telmo in Buenos Aires, we will have to find a temporary team to support. The choices in BA include Independiente, Racing, San Lorenzo, and of course the two giants: River Plate and Boca Juniors. According to my initial research, it looks like San Telmo is closer to the Boca area than anything else, so it looks like I might come home with a blue-and-yellow Boca Juniors jersey. I read that Boca fans are considered more working-class, as opposed to the northern River Plate fans, so Boca sounds more appealing to me anyway.
