In this aspect, the ethnographic fieldwork was carried out from the first semester of 2017 to the first semester of 2018, with supporters of «Millonarios Fútbol Club» who form Blue Rain.

In this way, the article is organized as follows: first, the introduction, which allows contextualizing the research problem; second, the research methodology and approach; third, the participation in the festivity and permanence in fights, demonstrate the «aguante»; and fourth, the socialization processes and the constitution of the hierarchy.
