El chalet de Benjamín

Ha pasado ya algún tiempo, pongo la excusa de que la inspiración cesó y con la misma fuerza que el blog fue creado, pareció desvanecerse. Pero he encontrado la razón de ser, ha sido así, inmediato, reflexionando sobre qué cosas recordaba de la fiesta de Halloween. Y no lo podía dejar pasar por alto, tenía que estar aquí reflejado un suceso que año tras año me viene a la memoria y no es otra cosa que la famosa fiesta celebrada hace 9 años en el chalet de Benjamín.


Para quien no lo conozca, Benjamín Zarandona es un futbolista hispano-guineano, hoy día en el ocaso de su carrera en el Palencia de la 2a división B, y fue durante una década el fichaje nacional más caro de la historia del Betis. En lo futbolístico, Benjamín pertenecía a esa clase de mediocentros que hacen un partido brillante de cada veinte para luego diluirse en otros tantos con la rentas de su depurada calidad técnica. Esa clase de persona que, sobrado de talento, no llega más lejos en su profesión por su apatía o, quien sabe, vanidad. Benjamín era querido en la grada, siempre amante de las filigranas, y quizá creaba algún resquemor entre los compañeros, obligados a esforzarse más y no obtener los mismos halagos que cuando al bueno de Benji le daba por sacarse algo de la chistera. La gran mayoría, en cualquier caso, estaba obligada a adorarle, pues se sabe que era un simpático allá donde iba.

Y sucedió. Estoy hablando de la fiesta que se celebró en el chalet de Benjamín a las afueras de Sevilla para celebrar la noche de Halloween. La cosa no hubiera trascendido de no ser porque algún pajarito le contó a Manuel Ruiz de Lopera, presidente del Real Betis Balompié, de la juerga que había allí montada. Y éste se personó junto a los dos entrenadores y el gerente del club en casa de Benjamín para pillarlos in fraganti. Eran las 4:30 de la madrugada. Lo que se encontró allí nadie lo sabe a ciencia cierta, ya que posteriormente fue motivo de chistes y comentarios de todo el mundo durante años, pero se dice que cuando Lopera llegó, allí estaban en torno al 60% de la plantilla, unos quince juerguistas, que se habían dado cita allí sin sus respectivas esposas o novias. Sin embargo, allí salían a dos señoritas para cada uno, algunas de ellas desnudas por los pasillos, y algunos futbolistas, en una escena vodevilesca, trataban de salir por las ventanas para evitar ser pillados. Benjamín, por entonces soltero, no tuvo que rendir muchas cuentas en su vida privada, pero sí con el presi, que hizo su particular caza de brujas. La gran mayoría, como digo, no sabía donde esconderse y ebrios, o a saber en qué estado, fueron pillados en lo que para la historia ha quedado como una escena culmen de lo que puede pasar en jóvenes, con un poder adquisitivo alto, con un éxito repentino y unas ganas de pasarlo en grande que no se lo creían ni ellos en aquella plantilla de aquel mítico Betis.

A posteriori, aquella historia degeneró en motivo de chistes, elucubraciones y suposiciones por parte de todo el mundo. Yo estaba en el instituto y, a veces, cuando alguien hablaba de juergas, siempre se recurría a hablar de la del chalet de Benjamín, y yo no podía evitar una sonrisa imaginándome a aquel elenco de futbolistas en semejante estado de lujuria.
