These are not goal celebrations, they are not controversial plays. The videos circulating the most from the 2026 World Cup in Mexico show something no one had in the script: foreign and Mexican fans spontaneously kissing in plazas, streets, and tourist areas of Mexico City, Guadalajara, and Monterrey. 💋

Since the tournament kicked off on June 11, and even more so after El Tri’s victorious debut, the Angel of Independence and the Zócalo became scenes of celebrations that turned into something more. TikTok, Instagram, and X captured it all. One of the most shared clips carries the text “people are already getting other nationalities with kisses of 4” —and it has millions of views. The account @JuanGaPosting was one of the first to make it go viral. 🌍🇲🇽

The World Cup arrived in Mexico and Mexico, apparently, welcomed its visitors with everything. Authorities reported thousands of services provided to tourists in the opening days, but no official statement mentions this. Social media does. 😏
