Estadio Alberto J Armando

This guide to La Bombonera in Buenos Aires opens with the stadium's odd fourth wall, flat and out of place against the three curving stands around it, and the tight rectangular lot in La Boca that forced its architect into that unusual shape in the late 1930s. It follows how the stadium got its nickname, and why one side of the ground had to wait years after the rest opened in 1940. Listen for the murals painted by local artists outside, tracing the same neighborhood that gave the club its colors.
