Pamplona Mashup: 2009 Running Of The Bulls/Nudes
8 July 2009, 2:30 PM. By Alejandro Paz
Right now you’re probably sitting in your office bored out your mind cause business is slow, wishing you were outside doing something a tad bit exciting. Maybe something like a nice walk through the woods. Or a jog on the beach. Or a jaunt to the adult bookstore. Each of those would be much better than sitting on your ASS, but none would possess the thrilling drama, troubling controversy and unholy pain that you could be experiencing RIGHT NOW in Pamplona, Spain. It’s the running of the motherfucking bulls and you’re not there. What a shame. Well, we’re not there either, but we are on Google like all day long, so we’ve prepared a virtual tour of the happenings which began Tuesday.
First, we have a video of the opening run, El Primer Encierro De San Fermin.
Holy shit, that looks fun. Except nobody died. Supposedly only like 4 people were injured and all we can see on the video is a few dudes getting jumped over by the bulls cause they fell to the ground. We are curious though why there was a guy passed out on the ground as the bulls enter the stadium. Was he wasted? Scared shitless? Very very tired? He looks dead and someone hilariously drags him off at 2:21 of the vid, but he wasn’t running from the bulls, we’re not sure he even saw the bulls. He was lying like a corpse well before the bulls approach and then a bull courteously side steps him. Why he do that???
In any event, you might be aware that bull fighting and bull running end up being very equivalent to bull torturing and bull murdering. Fighting a bull while armed with only a sword and cape or running from the enraged beasts armed with only a rolled up newspaper and adrenaline, definitely involves some skill, passion and athletic prowess, but we’re talking about brutal sports nonetheless.
And brutality to animals gets people a little peesed off. As PETA might say, “Bullfighting is a cruel blood sport that should have been relegated to the history books a long time ago. No matter what its history is, bullfighting consists of the torture, mutilation and slaughter of animals for entertainment.” Well damn, way to take the fun out of it, defenders of the animals! But we certainly have something in common with PETA: an ardent appreciation for nudity. PETA members (PETAns?) staged another bloody nude fest, this time in Pamplona, dubbed the Running of the Nudes, to make people simultaneously cringe and become erect.
Mission accomplished. Well, well, well, what a quandary. How about we solve it by mindlessly clicking through a mashup of images from each event and go away to a special place?!

actually i was there, and he got nailed by a bull, get your facts right nob
Awesome, thanks. Congrats to the bull who fucked him up.
Do you think they took the barbs out of the banderillas before they used them on each other?
One would imagine. Otherwise the protesters might actually feel pain rather than just look like a hot bloody mess. PETA is more about sexy than substance.
