Olentzero is a Basque Christmas tradition. It is comparable to the story of Santa Claus in that Olentzero comes to town on the night of the 24th of December to drop off presents. If you would like to read more about the tradition, here is the Wikipedia article.
This video is called the “‘Olentzero’ Christmas Carol derby,” and features both Iker Muniain and Antoine Griezmann conducting a few Basque-speaking companions of their respective teams in the singing of the “Olentzero” carol. (If you would like to hear the song with music, go here).
So who do you guys think won this derby? Mod No. 2 thinks Athletic definitely take this one.
Mod no. 2 is just reblogging this to let our followers who celebrate it, where it is already the holidays to have a very Merry Christmas!
Eguberri on!
