Madrid June 3rd Final day of Feria de San Isidro Toros from the famous Victorino Martin ranch, the only ranch to ever have one of their bulls pardoned from Madrid's Las Ventas bullring which happened July 19th, 1982. www.victorinomartin.com El Cid cuts two ears off of one bull and is carried out La Puerta Grande
Re: The art of the Bullfight. No problem. I just wonder though if I will ever get to see that movie in a theater setting or will I have to wait and try and track it down on dvd someday. It may turn into something like with the movie Green Street Hooligans, in some cities but not in Utah. Or worse, it may turn into something like with this book I've been trying to track down for years but I don't think it ever went to print. www.michaelcrouser.com
Photos from Madrid from this summer July 3rd Madrid saw a female matador, Mari Paz Vega. I'm not sure how long since a woman had fought at Las Ventas but I haven't seen one in the 4 or 5 years I've been following on the Las Ventas website. Also on July 3rd we saw David Luguillano. Maybe not the most handsome of men but what an amazing traje de luces.
Here is a link to some great photos of bulls from the Cebada Gago ranch near Cadiz Spain. Check out the color of the bull on page 8 in the upper left hand corner. Also check out the horns on the bull on page 9 in the lower left hand corner. http://www.mundotoro.com/mundotoro/....asp?Fecha=2005/06/06&Seccion=Imagenes&Id=980
Re: The art of the Bullfight. Because of this tradition we dont love animals? You are wrong my friend.
Re: The art of the Bullfight. Ignore them Godinho. That is exactly the reaction they were hoping to get when you decided to respond to their nonsense posts. btw what happened to the original thread title? It was much better.
Re: The art of the Bullfight. Keeping a bull in dark room, so that it will be confused when it enters an arena to be killed for sport? That's a sign of love for animals? I'm rooting for the bull 100% of the time.
To those who wish to speak out against bullfighting, please do so here: "The I don't like Bullfights and here's why thread." I created that thread for this very purpose. Please allow us to keep this as a bullfight appreciation thread. Much appreciated, futbol de primera, The art of the bullfight aficionado
Re: The art of the Bullfight. Maybe I am. What does that have to do with the fact that my post is completely "spot on"?
Re: Madrid May 21st corrida de rejoneo HMMMM... maybe because it is a barbaric activity that is performed by a bunch of pvssies in goofy outfits. Great question. Do you fight bulls?
Re: Madrid May 21st corrida de rejoneo I fight with the wife and the mother-in-law,thats enough coach.
