From what I've seen, Real Madrid is popular pretty much everywhere—it's honestly wild. Even some of my friends who barely know anything about soccer can recognize their name or logo. I think a big part of it is their insane history. They've won so many Champions Leagues and La Liga titles that people just assume they're the best, even if they don't watch soccer much.

Also, Real Madrid always gets the biggest stars, like Ronaldo and now Bellingham, so they end up in a lot of hype videos, commercials, and even fashion partnerships. I read how Louis Vuitton’s CEO said Real Madrid and LV just 'fit' together—shows how big a brand Madrid is, not just a soccer team. It always feels like watching them is a big deal, you know? Even for people who just want to post about seeing a famous team, Real Madrid is on that level. For me, seeing them win games like the 3-1 over Pachuca in the Club World Cup just reminds me why everyone pays attention to them, even if they're not fans. That's something special.
