Football Tango
"Wow, that's pretty amazing," I said to Man Yung after watching this video on Youtube this evening. "I've never seen anyone combine the two Argentine passions of Tango and Football with so much skill. I can't wait until someone comes up with a way to combine Tango and the making of the perfect Asado to four minutes of the best of Pugliese. Or perhaps even Tango, Football and Asado - all at once. Why settle for showcasing one or two of the Argentine national treasures when you can be the international cultural ambassador for all three?"

I guess they felt their dancing alone wasn't interesting enough to entertain the crowd! What a shame that there's more connection with the ball than with each other!
Everyone wants to have a gimmick.
Dear Cherie,
You are absolutely right "there's more connection with the ball than with each other!"
I wonder if they make their students run up and down a football field, shoot penalties and practice drills?
Thanks for your comment!
Irene
