Eight Roma fans, two children and six self-styled adults, climb onto the roof of a small car parked near the airport, just as I would have done at the age of eight if it hadn’t been for my father to block me with a glare. The daredevils underestimate that since every telephone is equipped with a camera, there is no longer the slightest possibility of going unnoticed.
The photo of the climb, with all those big feet intent on trampling glass and sheet metal, understandably irritates the owner of the car Martina Innamorati, a surname that life is putting to the test: she is back from a mission in the body shop where she discovered that the The amount of damage exceeds the value of the vehicle. In the following days, many fans who would never have the whim to jump on someone else’s Panda offer themselves to pay the bill out of civic sense, but the lady rightly doesn’t want the money from them. She demands them from the careless people who really got into her car and who persist in their carelessness to such an extent that they refuse to come out into the open.
Moral of the Panda: it is the guilty who do not pay and the innocent who want to pay. This is how the world goes, in reverse. If I were a paratrooper general, I’d write a book about it.
