Los Palmeras, in the South American final, playing and encouraging Colón de Santa Fe.
Everyone remembers Los Palmeras’ participation in the preview of the 2019 South America Cup final in Paraguay. La Olla de Paraguay became a party the moment they played “Bombón Asesino” and, more remembered, “I am Sabalero”. The gang’s identification with Colón and that event meant that the Cemetery of the Elefantes had a mural, members and that stadium. But that relationship seems to have taken, at least, a severe blow.
Wednesday, on Twitter, a photo was released between Marcos Camino, accordionist and one of the leaders of the band, together with Germán Lercheformer president of Colón denounced for irregularities during a management (2006-2013) not well remembered by the sabaleros fans, also for having opted for the 2014 descent. Neither the fans nor the José Vignatti CD liked this, current president, and therefore , the graffiti was removed this afternoon.
Lerche talked about it on Late 93.1 radio. “Vignatti moves from a standstill. I kick with him, no doubt it was he who made him cover it”he said angrily, a feeling that according to him, the band members also share: “I talked to them and they are very angry about the decision to cover the mural”. A shame.
Sandra Busa, Camino’s wife, also did not remain silent, and launched a spicy post on Instagram. “Friendships are inherited”, she added in the description, which features several photos of various family members with Vignatti. The waters are far from calm.
The other controversy between Los Palmeras and Colón
In June Camino was the protagonist of another controversy for a very unfortunate sentence. It was in the celebrations for the 209 years of the founding of the city of Paraná. Days earlier, Patronato had eliminated Colón from the Argentine Cup on penalties after a 1-1 draw. After the band played “Soy Sabalero”, the accordionist congratulated the fans on this feat, saying this “We’re ashamed to sing this song now, because Colón sounds awful … but people like the song. Colón is like rapists, they always break penalties.”a phrase that caused a lot of comments on social networks and discontent from fans.
