A favorite Medellin comedy/variety show was doing a live filming in Parque de Deseos last Saturday night. The crowd began forming early in the afternoon for a 7PM filming.
By curtain time, the open air plaza was jammed with about 25,000 people. It was a standing room only event.
Now my spanish is not bad but a lot of the jokes that included innuendo, metaphors, sarcasm and local modismos went way above my head. Probably like some of our jokes would appear to a non native English speaking person.
None the less, we had a great time and it was fun to be around a large group of local people. I think I was the only gringo in the crowd!!!
