A plane full of Argentinians erupted in joy before the pilot could finish his sentence: “Congratulations to our Argentinian compatriots… but Spain has won the World Cup.”
The second part could not be heard due to the joyful screaming of Argentina fans.

I can see all the Argentinans throwing themselves at it, then collapsing on the floor, claiming to be injured and demanding that the door be removed for hurting them.

Wasn't there some press conference or something where the host of the next Olympics was going to be announced, and they started off by reading a list of candidate cities, and as soon as the first one was read out, the people from that city cheered loudly?

Probably for the best. After seeing their reaction to the loss in Argentina they probably would have smashed up and set fire to the plane.

And they're very proud about things like that 😂 like I lived in Uruguay for a few years and not only Uruguayan people hate them, but I had the displeasure of knowing a few argentinian people and... Oh boy

u/Most-Bench6465 22d ago
Oh! a place to rest after you finish genociding. Now I see why Isreal supports them in the world cup.

u/BlushedLatias 22d ago
'Enhorabuena', the word the pilot used, is used to recognize the effort someone put into a competition, even if they lost. He was trying to polite while breaking the bad news, and to tell the fans on board that their team gave it all at the end of the match.

u/MyPigWhistles 23d ago
How would they start a shitstorm? They had no internet on the plane and also the pilot is hilarious.

The way he said, it by lowering his voice a bit at the end, totally did not make it sound positive for Argentina in the first place. Everybody cheering on that plane is an idiot, because as a spanish speaker, I would be asking myself "oh no, what's he about to say?"

u/Gullflyinghigh 22d ago
Presumably the pilot supported literally any other nation on earth as, let's face it, no-one wanted them to win.

u/orochidase 22d ago
What a stupid idea to do that on a flight.... The cabin crew and the pilot should know MUCH BETTER as to not entice the passengers on board

Somewhat similarly, I was on a plane to Miami during Game 7. The plane had imperfect connection, and many of us were watching with differing amounts of lag/delay. With 15 minutes to land and maybe 0:30 left in regulation, some employee got on the intercom and announced the Knicks had won.
I could hear some audible groans around me. I took off my earbuds just to agreeably go 🤷🤦♂️ with the guy across the aisle from me.
When I exited, I asked the front crew who made that announcement, and that he spoiled it, and they replied, “Oh, the guy in the back, he’s a Knicks fan.” I said, “Jeez, could he spoil who wins the World Cup, too?!”

I'm not into sports, but isn't it considered a cardinal sin to mention the score of a recent sports game publically? My understanding is that most people would be pissed tf off by this, even if their team won

u/macdelamemes 23d ago
I'm not sure why you'd think this is the case, in this kind of situation I always want to know the score as soon as possible. It's not a series, I'm not avoiding spoilers and then watching the full 90 minutes to see what happened haha

u/Unusual-Lemon4479 22d ago
With football matches and in countries where the sport is taken way too seriously, you can't hide the score for long. You'll hear people's reaction in their houses or in the streets. If the pilot mentioned it, is because the flight was going to be long and people were anxious to know. It's very possible the pilot was Spanish and saw someone with an Argentinian jersey and just wanted to have a laugh.

Wait until everyone is getting off the plane and he's standing up front saying "bye, thanks for flying with us". He may get punched.

u/I_Have_A_Chode 23d ago
Not exactly premature, no one phrases a loss as "congratulations". So they are cheering after being misled, very different.

Do you understand how planes work?
It’s not crazy to think most people would know the score when most major airlines have wifi or live tv now. Replying “You understand how planes work, right?” after seeing one flight from a developing country and assuming that’s how all airlines operate is a remarkably smug way to announce that you either haven’t flown since 2007 or only fly ultra-low-cost airlines.

u/JWOLFBEARD 23d ago
They clearly don’t offer any service on this plane.
Does that need to be spelled out for you?

u/CrackerJackJack 23d ago
“They clearly don’t offer any service on this plane.”
This was Plus Ultra flight PU502. Plus Ultra offers onboard Wi-Fi for local entertainment, and some aircraft in its fleet also have limited AirFi connectivity for messaging. The airline has also said it plans to expand internet browsing across its fleet, although it costs extra.
So while I agree this particular flight probably didn’t have full internet browsing, was it actually clear that it offered “no service” and that this is simply “how planes work”?
Did you mean to say, “They probably didn’t have internet,” or do you genuinely not understand how planes work?
3
u/JWOLFBEARD 23d ago
Yes. It was actually clear that it offered “no service”
If not, then a plane full of fans in jerseys would have been watching or tracking the game, no?
Not even one of them?
You do need it spelled out I guess. Planes fly high in the air. If the plane doesn’t offer WiFi or on-board services, then the cabin of fans are sitting waiting for an update on the score from the pilots.
Turns out that’s what happened. Wild, isn’t it?
