Hemingway's novel The Sun Also Rises helped to popularize San Fermin and el encierro. This monument sits outside the Plaza de Toros on Paseo Hemingway and is inscribed, "A Friend of These People and Admirer of Our Fiestas."
El Encierro (running of the bulls) dates as far back as the 14th century, when the bulls to be used in that afternoons bullfights were herded through the streets from their pen to the stadium. At some point, the drunken fools decided to run with them and the tradition was born.
Tomorrow we run.

nice outfit -- so you are totally gay now huh?
So because you survived the Bulls, does that mean I don't get your AMG?
Don't forget to bring Kio a red scarf!
Looks like you are having a great time, I hope Chad wears a head-cam! Be carful!

You really are doing the Sun Also Rises tour. Remember, don't hook up with hot girls named Brett -- she is a whore!
That was the image I was looking for! Red sashes are so masculine...I visited Barbie and Kio today. They don't need you anymore.
If you get this before you 'run' I have a photo suggestion: picture of your red shoes together on the street of pamplona about to run.
would you HURRY UP and get here? I miss you!
Are those white jeans or pants? I can't really tell. If they are jeans, did you save those from high school? I think I had some white mo-fo's back in the day at CHS.
the outfits again, classic! no wonder you're having trouble picking up the frenc girls! we-we!so, are you wearing the red puma's? run like your dodgers are stealing a base against my giants...and don't let us throw you out!
