Manuel Escribano preparing for yet another portagayola
April 13, 2024
While watching the bullfight on April 12 the commentators mentioned that Manuel Escribano now holds the record for the most portagayolas performed in the plaza de toros de Sevilla.
As you can see he is having to wear a pair of jeans. This is due to the fact that he was gored shortly after performing a portagayola with his first bull and his traje de luces was both torn up quite a bit and then eventually had to be cut off while in the infirmary.
It was quite the sight though, and probably the highlight of the feria, when he made his way back out into the plaza to fight his last bull. It was even made more impressive that the band played a paso doble while he performed the portagayola. Is that possibly a first? I don't know.

El Juli enjoying retirement. Or is he? Sometimes I wonder if a retired bullfighter is saying to themselves, "I could do better than that guy."

The 2024 season if off to a huge start
The 2024 bullfight season is off to a roaring start.
Los aficionados are hungry for bullfights and they have shown it with several sellouts already in Mexico City, Valdemorillo, Valencia, (Valencia had 3 sellouts in two days) as well as a very well attended opening day in Madrid.
Here is a list of some bullfights that have 2024 off and running:
Mexico City
Ciudad Rodrigo
Valdemorillo
Castellon
Moralzarzal
Valencia - (highlighted by a Jandilla bull that Roca Rey cut two ears from that many say should have been granted the indulto, and the return to form of David Fandilla who left the plaza through la puerta grande.)
La Línea de la Concepción
Arenas de San Pedro
Almendralejo - (Emilio de Justo gave the indulto to a bull from the Juan Pedro Domecq ranch)
Madrid
Coming up:
The much anticipated Easter Sunday bullfights in Sevilla and Madrid.
Other upcoming bullfights:
Ricla
Añover de Tajo
And bulls are coming back to at least a couple of plazas that have been without bullfights for the past few years such as Ciudad Real and Jerez de los Caballeros.
It is almost impossible to keep up with all the bullfights but that's a good thing.
Ole!

The 2024 season is well underway
The 2024 bullfight season is off to a huge start.
The bulls return to Mexico City today, (after taking last Sunday off due to the NFL Superbowel,) with what appears to be another sell out. That will be amazing, the 3rd sell out I believe this year.
Also, Isaac Fonseca cut 5 ears yesterday in Morelia. I believe that corrida is available to watch on OneToro, I'm going to check that out today.
And the season has officially kicked off in Spain.
Valdemorillo last week was a success with a "Noy Hay Billetes" on February 10th.
Ciudad Rodrigo also had yet another successful "Carnaval del Toro."
And yesterday Moralzarzal held a well attended benefit corrida.
(por Mundotoro) Moralzarzal acogió el festival a favor de la Sociedad Española de Cirugía Taurina con un buen ambiente en los tendidos. Respondió la afición y los toreros, pero no tanto las ilusiones altruistas puestas de los ganaderos en sus utreros. El Fandi fue el triunfador de la tarde, tras cortar dos orejas. Buenas faenas de Urdiales, Fortes y Fabio Jiménez. Disposición de Manuel Escribano, Cayetano y Ureña con los utreros más deslucidos en un festejo de largo metraje pero de buen fin: el futuro del toreo.
Yes, 2024 is off to a great start.

Tickets are sold out !
La voz de la multitud, como el estruendo de muchas aguas, como los truenos de los montes desde el reino de los tendidos para el bello grito de:
Libertad... Libertad...
Y que viva fiesta brava !!
Pasaron seiscientos veintidós días de silencio total, para empezar a soñar despierto y olvidar la caprichosa prohibición.
Saltarán al albero de La México el gran Joselito Adame, el dinástico Diego Silveti y la figura peruana Andrés Roca Rey, con toros de Tequisquiapan, ganadería que regresó a manos de la familia de Don Fernando de la Mora, después de que durante muchos años la mantuvo el ex rejoneador Ramón Serrano.
Importante festejo histórico de la vuelta de la fiesta brava a la plaza más grande del mundo, ha causado una enorme expectación, provocando que, faltando cuatro días, el boletaje se haya agotado.
DESEAMOS LA MEJOR DE LAS SUERTES A TODOS LOS ACTORES ESTE DOMINGO DE REAPERTURA EN LA MONUMENTAL PLAZA DE TOROS DE MÉXICO.

Un toro impresionante de Barcial
Situada a 20 km de Salamanca, en el término municipal de San Pedro de Rozados, se encuentra la dehesa de “Barcial” donde pasta la ganadería de mismo nombre.
El toro de Barcial es un toro único y diferente que la familia Cobaleda ha sabido cuidar y mantener durante casi cien años.
Durante una visita guiada a través de los cercados que componen la finca, podrá conocer la historia del encaste “Vega Villar”, y comprobar cómo se crían nuestros toros y novillos a la manera tradicional, sin fundas y en grandes espacios.
Se ofrece la posibilidad de que nuestros visitantes completen la jornada de campo, asistiendo a un tentadero en la finca “La Matilla”, además podrán disfrutar de un almuerzo degustando embutidos ibéricos, carnes a la brasa de encina y cocina tradicional salmantina.
Islero y la muerte de Manolete
Momento exacto en que islero prende a Manolete,es la única foto que se tomo desde el tendido.
