Jake Glass Spain is a stupid country with stupid traditions including the running with the bulls which take place this time every summer. The country also sanctions some two thousand bullfights a year with the vast majority of the battles results in the death of a bull. This past week though the bulls scored a victory when a matador was taken out by a right bull named Pork Chop.
Victor Barrio, 29, a professional bullfighter, was killed when the bull's horn pierced his chest.
The fight, in the eastern town of Teruel, was being broadcast live on TV. Little children around the country were horrified to see one of their heroes and animal abusers gored to death and thousands attended the matadors funeral and then feasted on the dead bulls meat from a prior bullfight. calls to put this strong bull pork Chop to death have ben called by vengeful groupies of Victor Barrio. Victor's family have been a long established members of Spanish elite circles for years and were proud of their son taking on bull slaughtering as a sport and carrying the Barrio nobleman name.
Also on Saturday, a 28-year-old man died after being gored by a bull during a bull run through the village of Pedreguer, near Valencia. The fact that this Spanish matador's death would coincide with the running of the bulls was pretty much a cool coincidence and maybe the matador's death inspired the Bulls upon hearing the news in the bullpen prior to the run.
The last matador to die in a bullfight in Spain was Jose Cubero, or Yiyo, in 1985.
Television footage shows the bull throwing Barrio into the air before goring him on the right-hand side of his chest and violently throwing him. Again we here at this blog always root for the Bulls whether it is the whimsical running of the Bulls or a so-called bullfight where nint-nine percent of the time it is the bullfighter trained for thousands of hours slaying a penned confused animal for some weird neurotic and eccentric ritual and suppose culture of a naton.
