After Real Madrid took down Atlético Madrid 3-2 on Sunday, its coach issued a very curious quote.
A quote — you might say — that might have let us all in on what Arbeloa might be interested in off-the-field.
Check out this nugget:
As any dad of girls, who grew up in the era between 2010 and 2017 (or so), the “power of friendship” statement brought back memories of my DVR being full of My Little
Pony: Friendship is Magic episodes.
When I first saw the statement, I turned into Chazz Palminteri at the end of The Usual Suspects:
All these years later, I had forgotten about the show my daughters watched religiously in their early years, where “the power of friendship” was a major theme. As you might imagine, it was a popular show among younger kids at the time, but a subsect of that fanbase emerged — Bronies.
What is a Brony, you ask? Well, let us tell you:
Have we uncovered a secret part of Arbeloa’s life? Does he have Rainbow Dash wings in his coat closet? Who was his favorite of “Mane Six?” Was he a bigger fan of earth ponies, pegasi, or unicorns? Did he enjoy Weird Al Yankovic’s cameo on the show?
It might be time for Real Madrid to ask.
