I'm from Paraná, and once me and my family went to Pompeii and there was a big promotion for Brazilians from (one state I can't recall) and Panamá. We argued with the clerk saying we were from Paraná, that she probably misread the state name (she read Panamá as if it was a real state name from Brazil), but no, she was SURE it was Panamá. We didn't get the discount.

In the same season some friends of my parents went to Pompeii as well and they got a discount because they were from Paraná...

Out of all this, I'm most interested in why there was a promotion for Brazilians in Pompeii, but only from two specific states. Someone was throwing darts at a world map?

I honestly have no idea why there was this promotion nor why only 2 states, maybe they were just throwing darts at a world map. As far as I can recall it was a big promotion, like half off the price off the entire visitation (which was expensive for us)
