Chiste de Navidad

Question

¿Por qué llaman al Atlético el equipo Papá Noel? Porque es rojo y blanco y con muchos paquetes.

Why do they call Atlético (Madrid) the Father Christmas team? Because they play in red and white and have lots of ... er ... packets?

¡No entiendo! Algo coloquial, pienso.

Answer 1

I think it's supposed to be they have packages. Beyond that I don't know if I can explain it further on a family friendly site.

Spot on. You need to place your mind in the gutter for a bit, and figure out how to associate the terms package and virility. Nuff zed. - Gekkosan, Mar 9, 2011

Yep! for sure. - pacofinkler, Mar 9, 2011

well Im already in the gutter so there wasn't far to go. I understood the joke immediately. - amykay, Mar 9, 2011

Answer 2

Thank you all!

I usually find "getting" jokes in foreign languages difficult. Since this one came from a website claiming to be "un nuevo espacio de cultura y ocio para todos los niños y padres de La Rioja", I thought it would be my weak Spanish at fault, not a lame bit of smut.

Ho, hum.

Answer 3

Santa wears red and white and carries packages, so the comparison is... Madrid wears red and white and has alot of "packages". I don't know if it's that simple, but it's a dirty reference to the Madrid player's junk (to put it in other words nicely). Lol... i'm not sure about Madrid's packages... but I can tell you they're nothing compared to Barcelona as a team. ¡Barcelona estan matando la líga! (waiting for Heidita's response jejejeje)

Answer 4

I cannot make sense of this sentance. Can anyone help please?

"Pepe no dar la solicitud a sus amigas".

Jacktar, this is a separate question. You should post it on a separate thread. - Gekkosan, Mar 9, 2011

Pepe doesn't give the request to his friends. - DJ_Huero, Mar 9, 2011

I agree with Gekkosan. - DJ_Huero, Mar 9, 2011
