Brief Bullfight Report

Last night in Thornton was a mixed bag. It was a festival style bullfight, which is a more informal style: for instance, the performers wore traje corto instead of trajes de luces. Sario Cabral and Eduardo Costa were good, but poor Joseph Correia has had better nights. His two assigned bulls were terrible, and the third bull he had was equally awful. I will post a bull-by-bull report later, but not tonight. Probably Monday, as tomorrow is a full day of festivities.

We had a good time, the weather was great, and the small crowd was full of aficionados, which is a pleasant thing. Most of the California bullfights are full of folks who really don't know what they are looking at, so it was a pleasant change to have the spectators really know something.
