He was referring to the top-tier samba competition, in which groups vie fiercely to have their performance judged the best. There’s no cash prize for first place, only a trophy and the bragging rights that last a year until the next Carnival. Portela has won the samba competition 21 times, more than any group, most recently when it shared the title in 1984.
