“We peeled out before the bar closed.”
“When I saw the cops, I peeled out.”

Mejenga
An informal pickup soccer game between friends, no league, no referee, just pure street football on any available patch of ground. In Costa Rica, the mejenga is a social institution: on weekends and after work, groups of Ticos gather to play for the joy of playing. No other Spanish-speaking country uses this exact word.
