Those that have been stuck on a bus in Colombia for more than two hours will half understand the country’s anachronistic addiction to the mullet. Whether it is Steven Seagal, Chuck Norris or Jean Claude Van Damme, this is a country that likes a hero with a bad dose of Hockey Hair.
But even the eight-hour ride from the Colombian capital of Bogotá cannot fully prepare you for the experience of arriving in Medellín on match day. Whether you wear the red, blue and white of Deportivo Independiente de Medellín (DIM) or the green and white stripes of their more illustrious rivals, Atletico Nacional, you are nobody in the Estadio Atanasio Girardot if you don’t wear you hair ‘short on top and long at the back please’.
