This is kind of a silly thing to post, but since Paco is normally so private about his, er, private life, I was surprised to see it online. Still, at however many years old, he looks super cool... and of course his daughter is beautiful. So, the legend continues. Paco is no mere mortal...Felicidades!

He has aged...here are funny some pics of PdL and the septet playing soccer (or futbol for you europeans ;) with me and friends back in 2001. My wife got MVP so PdL and Rafa de Utrera put her on their shoulders. She played collegiate soccer in University of Florida so yeah..waaay better than I am ;)

minor, he can speak english well a little broken but good enough. I remember asking him during dinner about Vicente Amigo and he complimented him a lot. He is very down to earth and made jokes about Rafael de Utrera being addicted to Haagen Daz ice cream.
He was good it was funny to defend Paco when he had the ball and see half his butt crack showing during the game..I had to keep pinching myself this is PACO! .. the best one was Joaquin Grilo he was fast..the game got a little rough a few times with some hard tackles with my friend Pepe Haro and Paco shouted out "hey thats my dancer I need him for my shows" great memories for sure. BTW, Paco is a HUGE Die Hard Real Madrid fan and so were a few guys there.
Here is another pic after the dinner with Jorge, Banderas and Rafa.

Paco is a die hard Real fan?!?! That's awesome! Thanks for the pics and story Don. Shows how humble true genius is. Some people will do well to learn from it!

In the end you played futbol with PACO!! Lets get back to that moment where you outplayed Paco.. what feeling was that? Was he bad at futbol? I would bet so. He seems to be a very funny guy too. Awesome!!
