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.

720 kilos! "Potrillo" de Pedraza de Yeltes


Just when you thought we wouldn't see a bull over 700 kilos again in Madrid for awhile, here comes another on. 

"Potrillo" from the Pedraza de Yeltes ranch was fought in Madrid last night by Joaquin Galdos.

No ears were cut but at least this bull was sent back to the corrals like the one earlier this year.
