The bulls pickup a few victories over dumb ass tourist today.

Horrific scenes on the streets of Pamplona as three men are brutally gored in bloodiest day yet of this year’s Running of the Bulls

By Gerard Couzens

An American tourist was gored by a bull on this morning along with two Spaniards on the bloodiest day of the famous Spanish Running of the Bulls festival so far this year.

The 20-year-old American tourist was gored in the stomach and a 42-year-old Spaniard in the arm as they took part in a bull-run in Pamplona, where people race through the Spanish town's cobbled streets pursued by the animals.

But the most terrifying moments occurred when a lone bull which had become separated from the pack attacked a second Spanish runner as he lay helpless on the ground after being mown down by the animal and tripping in front of it.

The half-ton beast gored the 31-year-old twice in the groin and once in the leg.

Dramatic TV pictures showed him being lifted in the air on the animal's horns with his trousers round his ankles.

Other runners tried to distract the animal by grabbing its tail and waving newspapers at it.

But a friend was only able to drag him away after more than half a minute of terror.

The injured man, from the eastern Spanish province of Castellon between Barcelona and Alicante, was undergoing an emergency operation this morning.

His condition was described as 'serious.'

Surgeons were also operating on the American gored in the stomach by another bull earlier along the half-mile run through the town of Pamplona in northern Spain.

The government press office identified the American gored only by his initials - P.E. - and gave his age as 20.

He and a second American, aged 48 and thought to have suffered head injuries, were also described as being in a 'serious' condition.

Six people in total were taken to hospital after today's run, the sixth of eight.

The gorings were the first of this year's festival, in which just 15 runners had been taken to hospital over the first five days.

The black bull which caused most panic Friday made several more attempts to charge people before he was eventually guided along the narrow streets to join the rest for the pack in the pen of the packed bull ring


They included gas firm worker John Bennett, 44, from Wolverhampton, who suffered knee injuries on the first run on Sunday after being trampled on by other runners as he fell near the end of the course.

Fifteen people have been killed at the annual festival, made famous by a 1926 Ernest Hemingway novel, since records began in 1911.

Between 200 to 300 people are usually injured each year.

The most recent death was in 2009 when 27-year-old Daniel Jimeno, from Madrid, was gored in the neck by a bull called Capuchino.

The event has become increasingly popular with foreigners, who join the locals by staying up all night drinking and partying before thousands compete in the 8am run.

Pamplona's population of 200,000 swells to around two million during the festival, the largest in Spain.

After each morning run, the animals are killed in an afternoon bullfight.

Around 3,500 thrill-seekers compete in the most popular weekend runs with 2,000 taking part during the week.

Nobody has died since 2009. And this is done by their own accord. Kinda like trying to jump off the roof into a pool.

What makes you think they won't be closing your streets? Maybe they're gonna start this one on the lawn in front of Queens and run those bulls right down Sauganash then west on Peterson.

Nice how they cheered him like he was an injured athlete who was able to give everyone a thumbs up while on the cart.

You should call the show, and drop this nugget on them. Gold, Steve. Gold.

Waiting for the time when I can finally say
That this has all been wonderful, but now I'm on my way

rest assured, you'd be the first one ever to make that witty comment

You should find a nice big bull, take a fine chamois to his horn (left or right, you choose) then shine that sombitch up and stick it straight up your candy ass!

I haven't seen a Muddy Buddy or Zombie Run or any other of these races for bored former frat/sorority people mess up traffic as of yet, so I have to give them a pass.
