On Day 2, the boys traveled to Argentino Juniors and practiced on the fields that such legendary players as Diego Maradona, Fernando Redondo, Juan Ramon Riquelme, and Juan Pablo Sorin used as youth players. When practice began, Darren Howerton ingested approximately three pounds of field grass, hoping to achieve a Maradona-like touch. Whether or not this tactic worked is still unclear. After the morning session and a light afternoon session, the team boarded a bus and took a tour of Buenos Aires. The highlight was a stop at the Boca Juniors stadium, where they snapped photos like a team of wedding photographers and flooded the gift shop like 18 Paris Hiltons. Two photo albums from the day's events are posted below. Enjoy!
