Bull Gets Even

As you might imagine, I find bullfighting both detestable and utter indefensible. As such, I’m always pleased to watch video of the bull goring the heck out of a matador. Today, via CNN (apologies for the stupid, dodgy, popup video player), a bull goes one better, hopping the wall in right field to go after the fans.

If you watch the video to the end, you’ll spot a photographer with nerves of steel. Or perhaps he’s a retired matador.

I saw that video also and you’re absolutely right. What a horrible and inhumane event to attend! The poor old bull - I hate to think what happened to him next.

PS: Love your site Darren. You do a great job!

Bullfighting is an awful, savage practice. This clip reminds me a little bit of Chris Rock’s routine about the tiger that attacked Roy Horn (of Siegfried and Roy):

“People said that tiger went crazy. That tiger didn’t go crazy. He went TIGER.”
