Yes ma'am! I'll need yours too so I can send a little package. I found some really cute things for the girls.

Nice. Some traditions are silly. I think some Spaniards are finally realizing it. I heard it's declining as a sport.

I never researched the history of this but wondering if it's a leftover from the Roman days.

By the way in that first video, the spectators seemed a little bit slow at getting out of the way.

It fits George Carlin's definition of a sport, but I think any sport with even one unwilling participant is more like, say, assault with a deadly weapon. The only good thing I've heard about bullfighting is that at least sometimes, in Spain, poor villagers are given the bull carcasses.
