It is heavily stacked against the poor bull but there have been times (including in the film I was watching - Pandora and the Flying Dutchman) where the bull wins. |
honey!oh sugar sugar. |
If they didnt disable the bull, so it cant win, I might like to see it!

Is it still on TV in Spain?
I can't fathom why they set fire to the bills horns in some events either?
Again humans are the worst animals on the planet. |

Sick and twisted sport.....even when the bull wins.
Too many years ago now to mention I used to drink with the Matadors and staff at a little bar in Nîmes,just behind the Bull Ring....always Pastis in a carafe,jug of water next too it...was still shown last year on Spanish TV...a group of us English left a bar empty when he insisted on showing it on the big screen in Casares... |

Was on a Sunday morning walk in Seville recently - and passed what looked like a small football stadium.
Then realised, from the posters, that a bullfighting event was in progress - with a large audience.
Another time, I was in Andalucia and visited the Bullfighting Museum in Ronda - up in the mountains.
No longer used for bullfights - the arena was the set for the movie, 'Carmen'.
Haven't seen the movie.
But the opera had a bullfighting background.
