Matador Jose Tomas suffered one of those professional hazards Sunday when he got gored twice during a bullfight in Madrid. One of them was to the groin. My voice just climbed a few pitches thinking about it.
The 32-year-old, who is widely considered one of the best bullfighters of all time, was competing at the Las Ventas bullring in the Spanish capital when he sustained his injuries.
Tomas, who received medical treatment at the scene, sustained one groin injury that looked exceptionally painful.
You don't say. I'm surprised the writer didn't walk up to the matador after the fight and say "You mess with the bull, you get the horns!" while giggling and playing with a bubble blowing wand. I know I was.
Tomas, who retired in 2002 only to return last year, is known for taking his teddy bears on tour with him for luck and possibly to scare away any pussy that might come his way. So, yeah, no harm done with the bull-induced castration.

Does the bull get to keep the nut as a trophy? Fair is fair.
PS Rectum? Damn near killed 'em.
further proof that god hates dudes in sequins
I heard that right before this happened, someone in the crowd yelled "That guy's nuts! Grab 'em!"
That bull kinda looks like Rocco Mediate.
Jesus, that bull already had the sword in its back. You can't tell the bull you were just kidding at that point.
YES!!!
I own that bull in my Toreador Fantasy League.
Just like almost every other sociopath and serial killer, I for the most part care about animals more than other human beings.
So the only thing I see wrong in this incident is that the other horn didn't go through his eye, poke his brain, and make him a veggie for the next 40 years……
Another blow to the regime of General Fransisco Franco!
@ DEF
High Five!!! I feel ya brotha! The only picture I was seriously hoping for was one of the Matador suspended inches off the ground by his gumsack from the bulls horn. Sigh… Too bad. Woulda also been nice to see this on video, possibly followed by another video of a bull possibly jumping the wall and rampaging the feeble, uncivilized crowd.
Looks like some pretty rough sex for that little guy in the fancy suit, pic #1 he's just giving it up to the big guy in the fur coat.
AND STAY RETIRED YOU FUCKING BITCH!
if you can take bull horns to the balls and walk away, you are somewhat tough. I would have tried to kill myself on the spot, if i was somehow still alive.
Skateboard douche from last week may now be regretting his decision to take up bullfighting. He shelled out for some sequined Vans too.
It's not so much a surprise because Tomas is widely considered one of the greatest bullfighters of all time.
It was a surprise because the bull was listed dead last in the ocho's pre-season power rankings.
You know what they say… Any given Domingo…
