We Are The White Roosters (Okay)

The local fútbol team in Querétaro is the Gallos Blancos. This year I made an effort to learn more about the game, especially with the move to Mexico coming and the ongoing FIFA games. I have to admit I really started getting into the excitement of the game and look forward to attending some games over the next couple of years while in Mexico. Attending a live game should prove interesting!

So I checked into the local team to find out more about the Gallos Blancos (White Roosters):

• Our colors are azul y negro for home games, blanco y negro for away.
• We are in the Primera División of Mexican football league system.
• The team's official foundation is July 8, 1950.
• Home games played at La Corregidora stadium in Santiago de Querétaro. (45,547 seats).
• Family based supported team, which includes several "porras" like "Esperanza Blanca", "Tradicional" and "La Corregidora".
• Fastest growing "barras" is the Resistencia Albiazul, formerly known as "Rebeldía Queretana", whose chants or "porras" have become a powerful encourager to the team.
• Rivalries with teams Club Irapuato, Club Celaya and Salamanca FC. Fiercest rivalries are with Club León and San Luis FC.

I need to pick up a vuvuzela somewhere!
