The Noble Sport Of Bull Fighting

The "fight" goes something like this:

  • A bull is let loose in the arena.
  • The toreadors confuse the bull by flapping their capes at it.
  • When the bull is worn out the picadors arrive on horseback.
  • They chase the bull until it is exhausted.
  • Then they drive a spear into the back of its neck. 
  • Once blood loss has weakened the bull, the banderilleros move in.
  • They ram pointed sticks into the bull's shoulders.
  • By now the bull is just about dead on its feet.
  • That's when the matador arrives.
  • He struts into the arena and teases the bull until it is about to drop.
  • Then he "bravely" moves in to kill the tormented bull with a sword.


Check out the dopey look on the face of this idiot matador. Five seconds later he was gored to death and left with an even dopier expression on his face. His family probably cried. I felt sorry for the bull.
