Brazilian journalist and football writer Rodrigo Barneschi takes you on a whirlwind away-day tour across 46 stadiums in 29 cities around South America.

This fascinating book:
- Provides a critical portrait of contemporary South American football
- Reveals how the experience of being a fan there has changed over the last three decades
- Brings us the authors unique perspective on what it means to be a supporter in a continent that is crazy about football
- Charts the authors richly varied exploits as a visiting supporter, from long journeys on dozens of buses, to airport adventures, to confrontations with police or between rival crowds: experiences that have been, as he puts it, the best, worst and most intense moments of my life
Originally published in Brazil, the book was widely acclaimed in South America both by the public and media.
