Many Colombians are still upset with Steve
Harvey for his mistake during the Miss Universe
pageant in which he announced the wrong winner.
They used an old New Year Eve tradition "Ano
Viego" to show their anger. It's a Colombian
tradition to burn dolls at New Years day.
Thousands of dolls get made but this time some
people decided to add a Steve Harvey effigy to
the mix.
In fact Harvey was the most popular doll this
year. Also burnt were effigy of Miss Universe, Pia
Alonzo Wurtzbach. The term, "Año Viejo," literally
means old year in Spanish. In Central and South
America, the tradition is to make a doll that
represents things you hate from the previous year
and thus, you’re burning it away at midnight and
basically letting it go. It is believed that the act
wards off bad luck in the coming year.
