This was funny.....there was a Basket ball court in the center of the plaza...well our guys from our church would go and shoot some hoops....well the pastor of the church where we were staying set up a basket ball game between us and some local mexican guys........well it was a joke on us....they were like the mexican globe trotters!!

The final score was like 76-14
