Ever since I was a kid growing up in Ogden Utah back in the early 80's, I've been fascinated by the Spanish bullfight. I even searched out books on bullfighting at the Weber County library, where I found and read "Death in the Afternoon" by Ernest Hemingway. I'm probably the only kid in Utah to have ever read that book. Now here we are 40 years later and I still enjoy learning about and keeping up with the bullfights.

Portagayola en Sevilla


(photo by Maurice Berho)

Manuel Esbribano performed this portagayola with a Miura bull on April 17th, 2016.

Miura bulls are historically very unpredictable and very dangerous. To be able to pull off a portagayola with one of them is nothing less than heroic.
