Popular game similar to polo. The riders have to take a goat or more usually a cow calf carcass rid with it around a flag and come back to drop it in a circle. No teams no rules. It is very violent but exciting. I nearly got trampled a couple times taking pictures and last week I got crushed against a barrier by several horses. Hope you like the shots (more in my photos)
Added to the Cream of the Crop pool as "most favorited"

this is the most grotesquely ugly thing I have really ever seen. the total and joyful lack of respect for life sickens me. It's nice you are showing this, but I cannot see it as anything more than a sick game played by mentally ill (yet socially acceptable) men. How can anyone see anything else? playing a game with a dead animal?
