Sos Cagón

The song 'Sos Cagón' is not a commercial music track but rather a chant commonly heard in Argentine football stadiums, specifically from the supporters of the club River Plate. The lyrics are a direct taunt aimed at their arch-rivals, Boca Juniors, often referred to as 'bosteros'. The term 'cagón' is a derogatory Spanish slang that implies cowardice, suggesting that the Boca Juniors fans or players are cowards.

The chant references an incident in Mar del Plata, where the two teams' supporters were supposed to meet, but the Boca Juniors fans allegedly did not show up, which led to River Plate fans accusing them of being afraid ('no te plantaste'). The 'borrachos' mentioned in the lyrics likely refers to 'Los Borrachos del Tablón', the most notorious group of River Plate supporters. The chant mocks Boca Juniors for not standing their ground ('como cobraste'), implying they were beaten or scared off.

This chant is emblematic of the intense rivalry between River Plate and Boca Juniors, which is one of the most famous in world football. It's a part of the cultural fabric of Argentine sports and reflects the passionate, sometimes aggressive, nature of football fandom in Argentina. The repetition of '¡Sos cagón, sos cagón!' is meant to be sung loudly and in unison, creating an intimidating atmosphere for the rival team while bolstering the camaraderie among River Plate fans.
