Friday Caption Contest: Baby Matador edition!

By raincoaster

Now, this is just not something you see every day (unless you read Shadow of a Bull in school and have flashbacks…or is that just me?).

Michelito Lagravere Peniche, Child Matador

Shadow of a BullThey are not allowed to fight professionally in Spain, but baby-faced bullfighters are the rage throughout Mexico. Even though some of the school-age children appearing at the country’s scores of bullrings are not much taller than the bulls they confront, these mini-matadors have begun getting top billing from promoters, who view them as a new way to bring people to the arena…

What ever happened to baseball? Don’t they have hockey in Mexico? What about volleyball? Charades? Should we send in a NATO nonviolent sports task force? Uh, on second thought, forget hockey.
