For those of you who read about last summer’s visit to Corazón de Ñaupas in Peru, I’m pleased to report that Polymer Studios is the proud sponsor of the town’s soccer club.
On my last night in the village, the club presented me with a formal request for sponsorship, typed up on the only typewriter for miles around, signed by the officers of the club and stamped by the local notary. Who could say no to such a proper business proposal? We’re contractually barred from disclosing the details of the sponsorship, but let me put it this way: in the past, the guys played in the clothes on their backs and the other teams made fun of them. Especially those jerks down in the rich city of Vinchos. Who’s laughing now, Vinchos?
We’re hoping to have a skybox installed in the coming year. Until then, our preferred seats at the home pitch are located on top of the big rock outcrop above the field. (No, not the one above the outhouse, but the other one near the cornfield.)
We wish the Ñaupitas the best of luck in the coming season, especially against those dirty dogs down in Vinchos.
