- Make people realize that Pato is Argentinean official sport and that had to be changed.

Get as much signatures as we can to make a politician present a project to change the law- We made the first big event in a main down-town street with celebrities, they stopped the traffic and made a soccer match.This was filmed an put on air on national television.We got a lot of sports celebrities to support this movement. Even celebrities that don't play soccer.

We made a huge print and outdoor campaign with this celebrities, where they were signing to support this.

We did guerilla outdoor like the soccer teams do. We created a site where people had to leave it signature and id number to support soccer.We created a Facebook page.
