Short summary
Based on measurements and modeling, this study shows that recent record-breaking peak events of fine particles in Santiago, Chile, can be traced back to massive barbecue cooking by its inhabitants during international soccer games.

This study implies that cultural habits such as barbecue cooking also need to be taken into account.
