Arthur did not merely support the club; he deciphered what it means to be Flamengo. Through his words on ‘Urublog,’ in his books such as the ‘Manual of Rational Rubro-Negroism,’ and through his constant presence on social media, he gave voice to millions, transforming the stands into literature.

His departure leaves an immense void in the heart of the Nation. We wish strength to his family, friends, and the thousands of readers who, like him, live Flamengo in an ‘over-the-top’ way.

Rest in peace, Arthur.”

WHO WAS ARTHUR MUHLENBERG?

Arthur Muhlenberg was born on March 7, 1964, in Rio de Janeiro. A writer, Arthurzão authored several books about Flamengo, also took part in podcasts about the club, and found success online with his taunts aimed at rivals. One of the last striking lines from ‘Urublog’ was:

It is always good to remind everyone that the main social function of Clube de Regatas do Flamengo is to make everyone who isn’t Flamengo very p…”. His good humor and his quick, creative one-liners will never be forgotten by the Rubro-Negra Nation.

In recent months, Arthur underwent a bone marrow transplant and remained hospitalized for a long period. On social media, ‘Urublog’ posted about the harsh daily routine of overcoming challenges and celebrated every victory, such as being able to leave the room or walk with a cane. Sadly, however, the ace of words did not survive.

Coluna do Fla deeply regrets the passing of Arthurzão and extends its solidarity to his family, friends, and fans.
