Everything is rooted in the local tradition. Whenever the Blue Lake dries up (which rarely happens) , the local population will organize a football game featuring the mythological characters from the Imotski folklore - Vilenjaci (gremlins) vs Vukodlaci (Vampires). The whole area is extremely rich with unique folk culture including music, folk tales, gusle, ganga, folk dances, poetry, etc.) This is an authentic Croatian culture from the Dalmatian hinterland. It celebrates the romantic heroes through the gusle music. Also, its oral tradition (witches, vampires, and fary tales) have been celebrated throughout Europe in literature and music. Unfortunately, this culture has been largely ignored in the last decades.
That has got to be the most unique football pitch in the world, what a location! Looks like quite the funny players as well 😃 Thanks for sharing this rare experience!
