Down goes Frazieri! Down goes Frazieri! |
Barcalangia, Spain - 'Serge,' a 4-year-old, 1600-pound
black bull, was the first bull ever to win the 207th All-Espana Bullfighting
Championships! Serge severely gored the first seven matadors he faced,
then knocked the eighth senseless on his opening charge. The next and
last matador in the Barcalangia bullpen, the Great Goffredo, immediately
withdrew with what he told officials was a sudden and severe gall stone
attack. At this point an irate Spanish spectator, 37-year-old Marculio
"Coolio" Pedroza, lept into the ring and tried to kill Serge
with his nearly empty gallon jug of Sangria. Serge bit off his arm and
Pedroza wisely retreated back to the stands, where his friends rushed
him to Yo No Se Medical Center with his detached arm in their Sangria
cooler. The entire stadium sat frozen in fear for over 40 minutes until
an alert stadium trumpeter, Manual d'Ortega Marsalis, had the presence
of mind to sound the "vittorioso" bugle call, and the crowd
cheered Serge wildly. Serge then relaxed enough to be escorted to a limousine
waiting outside the stadium for the tournament winner. Said limo driver
Arturo Esteban, "Lucky I brought the stretch."
