Like fools who walk with the chati, there is no running of the bulls at San Fermín without a copy of the best prepared generation in history that records the event, the high and who knows if, with time and a cane, his own death, an outcome that It would get you a lot of likes.
Yesterday, several individuals appeared who ran – were in the way – and recorded themselves with their cell phones in the Cebada Gago encirclement, dangerous due to the dispersion and excess of personnel, 70% of whom – being generous, San Fermín obliges – only do the Mona de Pascua, because they neither run nor have an idea – two would be a lot – of what a brave bull is and can do when it is disrespected.
Here where you see it, a bull is a dignified animal with ancient manners, one of the last in the fauna of the 21st century, which demands respect and to say good morning. You do not buy it or give it as a gift with a walk through the streets of Pamplona, ??up the Estafeta, an elementary fact that the fools of the mobile in the middle of the confinement ignore.
On a human level, how can someone be so stupid as to risk their life to record something that TVE already broadcasts in great detail? The reader will say that the runners and pa na expose as much or more. The authentic runner, the one who gives meaning to a party that lasts 204 hours, is the complete opposite of the mobile exhibitionist. He runs and exposes life to himself, out of affection for a tradition that his father and his grandparents have already experienced, without television or networks or nonsense that stuns and is prohibited.
He runs in front of a bull – faster and faster, it is noticeable that the ranchers make them go to the gym – because he wants to overcome fear, a very healthy exercise to get to know oneself.
And he risks, of course, and more because of those who passed by and disturbed what is not written, but with the peace of mind that the sponsor, the sponsor (for the laity), the fucking master, is a generous saint who manages the cape is better than Morante and he does some removals that save lives.
Those who have been fortunate enough to know Navarra and its people are never strangers to these festivities that defy the silly logic of the world of 2023. We still have San Fermín…
