Disco is not Dead. Just ask Peru’s coach

We all pay a price when we go to the disco. For me, it is the price of embarrassment. Having my pictures taken in those platform shoes with goldfish swimming in them is something that will forever keep me from running for public office. For Peru national coach Julio Cesar Uribe, a trip to the disco means he will be paid 30-percent less for a month by his country’s federation.

Uribe is in deep doo-doo because he not only went to a disco after a friendly against Japan last month, but also because he lied about getting his 70s shake-your-booty groove on.

We were not bothered about Uribe going to a disco after the Japan game, what annoyed us was that he denied it,” said Peruvian Football Federation director Juvenal Silva. “For this reason, we have decided to financially punish Uribe by cutting his salary by 30 percent for one month.”

Silva said Uribe would hold a news conference on Thursday, saying: “He will apologise to 28 million Peruvians for making a mistake”.

Good God, I hope he at least got laid that evening. And I thought my own mother was harsh the time she grounded me for sneaking out to go to the disco. Thank goodness I wasn’t raised by the Peruvian Football Federation.
