Bulls getting their own back

It does seem to be a very old fashioned and outdated form of willy waving. Can't they modernise it by having British Pensioners with sharp sticks riding around Spanish streets on their mobility scooters?

The bulls would only be held up in a queue trying to get past said OAP's or overcome by the smell of wintergreen ointment and stale wee. Anyway serves the macho yobs right if the poor bulls take a few silly sods out of the human gene pool, there's a few round my way I'd throw in front of an angry ton of bull quite happily tbh.

To be honest I like it. I like how health and safety hasn't got the better of it. I like how its a tradition that no one has said is wrong. I like how people get killed and people still go to it knowing the dangers. Then look at us Brits...we can't even say bar bar black sheep any more! But killed is fine in other countries!

Disgusting & barbaric "sport" anyway.

Like Dog fighting & Bear Bating this belongs in the past & should not be entertained these days.

(wait) Although,,,,,,, perhaps the Romans were on to something ...???
