San Jeronimo is honored every 29th of September with this procession in the street. They leave the main cathedral and around town. This procession consists of groups of teenage and young adult boys trying to contain a raging bull. The bull costume is sort of like a turtle shell covered in colorful streamers with sharp horns on one end. The bull trashes around wildly as they move down the street and the rest of the guys try to not get stabbed and hit the bull with sticks. I estimate there were about 30 bulls at this procession.
