In MyMemeCards, the meme card game, “Why Do That, Romarinho?” is a common card of the Brazilian Memes pack, number 255 of the collection, and the 1st best-known meme of its 300 cards. Here is what the meme means, where it comes from, and how to get its card.
What does the “Why Do That, Romarinho?” meme mean?
The meme works as banter between rival fan bases: it represents the rival suffering again against the same player, with the question asked in a mock-lamenting tone. It is used whenever someone scores or wins against the same opponent more than once, as if deliberately “doing it again”.
Where does the “Why Do That, Romarinho?” meme come from?
In 2012, striker Romarinho scored against Palmeiras shortly before playing the Copa Libertadores final with Corinthians. In the first leg of the final, at La Bombonera, he scored again against Boca Juniors to secure a 1-1 draw; the title was only won a week later, in the second leg, with a 2-0 Corinthians win at Pacaembu. Fan Kelvin Thiago, then 19 and behind the humor page “Corinthians Mil Grau”, made edits of rival fans asking why Romarinho kept doing this to them, with intentional misspellings, “pq fas iso romarino”. The lighthearted format and deliberate typos helped the meme spread, and the page grew to 132,000 followers.
