Parting Shot: That’s bull
An Alcurrucen’s ranch fighting bull looks at a pink capote during a bullfight of the San Fermin festival, in Pamplona, Spain, Sunday, July 7, 2013. Revelers from around the world arrive to Pamplona every year to take part on some of the eight days of the running of the bulls glorified by Ernest Hemingway’s 1926 novel “The Sun Also Rises.”
PAMPLONA, Spain – Several thousand thrill-seekers tested their bravery Sunday by dashing alongside six fighting bulls through the streets of the northern Spanish city of Pamplona on the first day of the running of the bulls.
Despite a large crowd of participants because the run coincided with a weekend, only four people were treated for injuries and no one was gored, officials said.
Thinking about adding “and no one was gored,” to all future Facebook status updates. Have you ever desired to run with the bulls?
