The bulls — one weighing 1,300 pounds — charged out of the corral faster Friday than on preceding days, with several going off on their own rather than lumbering along as a pack.

Emphasis on how BIG the animals were...umm Im sorry if you piss off a 1,300 lb animal you DESERVE to at least get stepped on!

I worked on the custodial staff for a bull riding event and was scared even to go near the bulls! They just LOOK hostile. Until one rider said just to go up and pet one...and I did! I don't understand why someone would want to annoy such a gentle critter. In fact, some of the riders told me that some bulls are like dogs and follow people around .

Explain to me again why people like irritating them? Most of them arent that natively hostile. Dad says he's had COWS that were more of a problem then some of the bulls were.

Maybe they should have a running of the cows event. No pointy horns but if you get stepped on the effect is just about the same.
