The former President of the Nation, Mauricio Macri, starred in an unexpected scene that quickly went viral on social media: he was seen shopping at a supermarket in the Buenos Aires neighborhood of Palermo, and several neighbors took the opportunity to take photos with him. The images, spread on X, show the former head of state inside a branch of the Disco chain, where he was shopping informally and without visible security. The posts quickly went viral and sparked comments about the spontaneity of the moment. After leaving the presidency in 2019, Macri remains politically active within PRO and continues to be a central figure in the Argentine political scene, so appearances of this kind outside the institutional sphere tend to capture public and media attention. The photos shared on social media reflect an unexpected encounter between neighbors and a high-profile political figure in an everyday scene that quickly became a digital trend. In the photos, he looks relaxed, dressed casually, and with a good disposition, he complies with the requests for 'selfies' from those who recognized him as he walked down the aisles. The episode surprised the supermarket customers, who did not expect to run into the former head of state in such a mundane situation.
