The 2025 bullfighting season carries on tonight with another spectacle at the Aberto Balderas Bullring in downtown Juarez.
Tonight’s headliner is El Zapata. From LaPrensa.org, in San Diego:
Uriel Moreno, “El Zapata” is, as his unique nom de guerre might imply, a torero for the working man; Joe Plumber in a suit of lights. Long among the most active toreros in Mexico, “Zapata,” like his fellow Tlaxcalan “Zotoluco”, has thrived in the nearly twenty year drought of true figuras through his extreme professionalism, his considerable athletic ability, and his dedication to giving the paying public its money’s worth, in whatever way possible.
Bullfighting is a barbaric spectacle, but at least they sell beer.
