Central to the local fiestas in the province of Guanacaste, Costa Rica, is the bull riding.

There is actually bull riding; however, the highlight of the event is watching the drunks, full of machismo and guaro, taunting the bull, being chased, and occasionally gored.

There are usually 3 or 4 ambulances lined up, waiting to take away the casualties.
