South Africa 2010
A fan decided to “Mexicanize” the statue of the hero of the South African nation, Nelson Mandela by putting a hat on it.
This “nice” act was considered a “national offense”, for which the fan was arrested.
Brazil 2014
Jorge Alberto López Amores, son of Raciel López Salazar, attorney general of Chiapas, in a notorious state of intoxication. The 29-year-old decided to throw himself from the 15th floor of the ship, bragging that he would make history.
This caused the cruise to stop, although due to the size of the ship it took about 20 minutes to stop the cruise. The mobilization of the search and rescue bodies occurred, however, the subject was never found.
Brazil was a massive World Cup for Mexicans, however, it was the event in which the homophobic cry that was replicated by other hobbies, both locals and other Spanish-speakers, became notorious.
From that fact, in the 2014 World Cup in Brazil, the Mexican fans in the stands were followed with a magnifying glass by FIFA. This indiscipline has cost many millions of pesos to the Mexican Soccer Federation, such has been the case that in In this tie for Qatar there were several games behind closed doors due to this offensive gesture.

The video generated outrage on social networks and the content producer had to apologize, after which its relevance practically disappeared.
The fame of the Mexican romantics became clear, after a fan of the green was reported missing. That was Francisco Javier Mata Sánchez from the capital.
His wife recalled that he sounded upset on a call. The last time his friends saw him was early on June 17, when he left a bar. All this ended when they discovered him three days later, after having an escape with a Russian girl identified as “Alita” that he met at that World Cup.
Although Mexican fans have had the courage to create controversies. A couple of Mexican fans witnessed a street fight between two Russian men in the streets of downtown Moscow and tried to stop the row with a few friendly “tranquilovsky, tranquilovsky.” A good one from the Mexicans.
