Lionel Messi Pulled onto Stage and Cheered After Attending Show in Argentina

If you're Lionel Messi, there are few places you can go without being recognised and adored.

That applies double in Argentina, where Messi used his downtime during the current international break to attend the theatre and watch his friend Nicolas Vazquez.

"

Sos el 1! Sos distinto! Gracias por tanto cariño @leomessi Te quiero mucho! Inolvidable función #ElOtroLadoDeLaCama pic.twitter.com/4FeE2ZBV4X

The actor was performing in a production of El Otro Lado de la Cama, after which he pulled Messi from the audience and onto the stage.

From there, the Barcelona superstar was greeted by the show's cast, while the audience sung his name and applauded.
