Suli was happy to meet Messi
“Don’t dream of meeting your idol.” This quote is a reminder to those who idolize stars so much that they disregard everything but the final result is the opposite. However, the story below of a crazy Messi fan is an exception .
Messi’s family is on a long vacation in many different places after the sadness of Copa America 2016 as well as the tax evasion case. On the island of Ibiza. Messi rented a yacht to enjoy the beautiful scenery as well as avoid the noise from fans and paparazzi . However, that did not escape the Spanish fan named Suli, who idolizes Messi.
Even though she knew Messi was out at sea and probably wouldn’t accept her, Suli still risked swimming 1 km from the shore to Messi’s yacht.

Touched by Suli’s enthusiasm, Messi invited him onto the boat to chat for 20 minutes. Not only that, this crazy fan was also invited by Messi to drink wine and take souvenir photos before leaving. Of course, Messi did not let his “die-hard fan” return to shore the way he came. The Barca striker called a canoe to take Suli to shore.
Suli’s daring act made him famous immediately. The next day, Mundo Deportivo newspaper published a cover photo of Suli and Messi.
Through the above story, perhaps many “crazy fans” will change their concept of not being afraid of their idols rejecting them, but only being afraid of their idols being too far away from them!
As for Messi, this is the second time in the past month that he has encountered unexpected situations. Last month, while playing in the Copa America, a crazy fan rushed onto the field, hugged Messi, and bowed to his idol twice before leaving.
