Colorado's brief, but notorious, relationship with bullfighting caused a tremendous stir back in 1895 and nearly caused a riot in the now defunct town of Gillett, Colorado (not Gillette, Wyoming).
Fortunately, a photographer was on hand to capture scenes from what was only the second proper Mexican bullfight in the United States.
