During our trip to Madrid last year, we decided to watch a bullfight.
It is one of the most brutal things I have ever seen in my life. I have decided to exclude the more graphic/ morbid photos because it really is terrible. I have all respect for the brave matadors because it must be terrifying to stand in a ring with a raging bull, but I honestly think the sport is quite sadistic.
We watched on May 15, the feast of San Isidro, so the arena was really packed. The fight started at 7 p.m sharp!
There were three matadors that night, the one in purple tights is really cute. :) He was also the best one out of the three. No idea what his name is though!
He's quite bendy. haha
All three matadors won that day.
As of January 1, 2012, bullfighting has been banned from Catalonia.
