Pacho Herra was a known flamer. But he had respect tho. Pacho was also the one who really set up shop in NY too. Dude moved there to work in the diamond industry in the 70s and ended up moving coke. There would have been no flooding NY without him. Im on ep 6, not sure if they mentioned that in later eps tho. You can also see them clearly laying the ground work for the Mexicans in the upcoming seasons. Not 100 on this but I think that Lord of the Skies guy was who on top before Chapo came along in Mexico.
I'm sure most brehs won't agree, but this my favorite season. True Pablo himself was more entertaining, but this season has more interesting characters and a deeper storyline. Also personally I dig it more cuz I used to be cool with this Colombian chick from Cali who mentioned the "Gentleman of Cali" before. And she described them just how the show did. The Medillin crew were considered to be low life hicks with no class basically, the Cali dudes was the refined ones, going to equestrian events, fashion shows and always at the high society stuff. Won't lie tho that scene in the dance hall in ep 1 (before Pacho pulled up) got me wanting to make my way down to Columbia now. That salsa dancing with a Latin chica looked fun AF. Them folks down there seem like they know how to throw a good ass party.
