San Isidro - Madrid - 5-20-2014
A scary day for matadors at Las Ventas this afternoon. All three toreros were seriously wounded and David Mora is in grave danger after being riddled by his first bull, Deslio.

One of the most amazing kills you will ever see performed today, on the sand at Las Ventas by Fandino.
When you do this they carry you out the big door. Holy shit.

Playmobil Toy Bullfight Set
With San Isidro upon us my thoughts target Los Toros. This toy, sourced at ToroShopping.com is sure to please the taurine addict among us and definitely the bambino's. I want it so bad I can taste the sand.

El Toro - Denver - First Rate Fried Tacos
Taco shops are dime a dozen in Denver but my search is over for the finest taco. El Toro on North , Colorado Blvd takes the vuelta. The building, nondescript if not gnarly. The atmosphere, quintessential down to the stained menus. The art, a myriad of chintzy sorts including a nice collection of black velvet, bullfight scenes. The taco, nonpareil. I really don't need to go anywhere else in this town for a taco.
Thanks Jimmy Weeks

It's been over fifteen years since I last trained on the sand with my friend Coleman Cooney of The California Academy of Tauromachia. I'm well over due.
Padilla takes on Madrid - Feria del Arte - 6-5-2013
Arguably one of the most anticipated days in Madrid this season. The Corrida de Beneficencia welcomed Padilla, Morante de La Puebla and Sebastien Castella to the sand along with the bulls of Valdefresno. While most came to see Padilla who was magnificent with the capote on his first animal, it was Morante who won the crowd...sorta.
Padilla's second bull tossed him. And from the live stream, looked like he got a pretty good one in his calf.

San Isidro - 5-19-2013 - The Rain in Spain
Not even the hail could dampen the mood of Madrileno's today at Las Ventas. Three matadors took to the sand with the bulls of Fermin Bohorquez and the ring lit on fire. The bulls were brave and on rails. The torero's fearless and wet. But, the biggest news of the day is that Diego Silveti is the first Mexican torero in 13 years to cut an ear in Madrid. Bravo Maestro!
