strange kind of entertainment but really interesting.What is the reason you guys do this - guess its a long tradition so is there any story behind that ?

Why are the Spanish so cruel to bulls ??

I watched a programme a couple of months back, showing you exactly what goes on.

One 'game' is setting the bulls horns on fire, another is simply bull fighting, with the crowd firing darts into it. I could go on and on.

Sickening...

There is no story behind it really that can be ascertained, the bull has been considered a sacred animal by many cultures since thousands of years ago, In Spain people have been involved in activities and or festivities related with bulls for well over 1000 years, although what is now considered bullfighting has been going on for more than 300 years.
