Running with the Bulls(no, not the NBA team. RUN!!!!!!!!)

     This past Saturday, many would-be daredevils took to the paths of Hawthorne Race Course to test their mettle against a behemoth of nature-a bull.  Modeled after the infamous yearly Running of the Bulls in Pamplona, this run was the first held in the area.  The organizer got the idea for the run after trying to make a pilgrimage to Pamplona in 2012 but had to defer for monetary reasons.  So, he decided to bring the run here so that people didn't have to shell out upwards of $4,000 for the privilege of being chased by angry bulls for half a mile.  Now this event was slightly tamer than the Spanish version, what with the bulls being less angry than normal, and with horsemen tailgating the bulls ready to lasso an overly-rowdy animal.  But none of the roughly 6,000 people in attendance at the event seemed to mind.  They were all just too ecstatic over running with the bulls.
