Pelé Robbed by Gang at Gunpoint Near São Paulo
One would think being the greatest footballer in the history of this footie-mad nation, the once and future savior of American soccer, and the captain of the Tang Soccer Team would get some preferential treatment from robber gangs that take advantage of SĂŁo Paulo’s traffic woes to rob slowed cars at gunpoint.
One would be correct. When those Brazilian thieves recognized the great PelĂ©, they’ll steal his gold necklace, cell phone, and watch but let the driver keep a few items out of deference to the wondrous PelĂ©. Now that’s power, boys and girls, that borders on worship.
