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.

"Antes a todos los toreros nos salían unos tres toros que rozaban el corral. Las cuadrillas iban de cabeza al callejón. A la mayoría de toreros de mi época le echaban un toro al corral. Había grandes broncas porque se perdían los papeles, pero ahora no pierden los papeles porque el toro no se los hace perder. El domador doma leones, pero si ya viene domados sólo los pasea" - Luis Francisco Esplá
