Will work on it tomorrow, promise. I went to the Superior de Comercio in 1993-1994 and I remember the unfriendly visit mentioned in the new additions, though I wasn't there when the boys from the Politécnico came (it was early in the morning and I attended school in the afternoon). Such memories! :) —Pablo D. Flores (Talk) 02:03, 13 October 2006 (UTC)

Thanks Pablo, my involvement is from finding spanish in the article one time I was on a recent changes patrol, but now that I've been watching and reading this article, I find the topic interesting and would'nt mind understanding it better. ;) Delta Tango | Talk 09:50, 13 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Moved from article

I've moved the content here just in case somebody can provide a source. There's no mention of those incidents in the online press, though I do remember they happened; I'm not sure when, or if it really was Día de la Chupina. The author of the text below is also mixing up the celebrations of DdlC with those of Spring Day.

The first day remembered on Rosario is about 1993 - 1994 at least, local newspapers were available online first much later, too litle remembered by press, cause there is not too much problem with teenagers, but it was started with the visits from students of Politechnical Institute {Instituto Politécnico General San Martín} to Economical Institute {Superior de Comercio} with aggressive purposes pointing the hate between schools on top with songs, stones, and eggs, this kind of peregrination always was with or without knowledge and/or consent of their parents. That's Día de la Chupina with the purpose to not attend classes, and then the other schools came first one later, not the harm to the comerce, the harmful behaviour came from the more exitated aggressive teenagers more or less from poor other schools, who joined the battle of school differences in the future. It happens too on the Spring Day actually. But actually the battle from schools was reduced to the main purpose to not attend classes, very well joined together.

Assuming the author prefers Spanish, this is to you: Yo iba al Superior y me acuerdo de las veces que hubo lío con el Poli, pero acá no podemos insertar información "más o menos" y que no esté respaldada por alguna fuente escrita u online. O sea, no podemos relatar de memoria sin datos firmes. Si encontrás un artículo de La Capital de 1993 o 1994 que lo mencione, y lo citás con fecha y título, con eso está bien. Te sugiero la Hemeroteca que está a la vuelta de la Biblioteca Argentina... —Pablo D. Flores (Talk) 14:57, 13 October 2006 (UTC)
