Running of The Bulls in America



Participants are knocked over by charging bulls during the Great Bull Run at the Georgia International Horse Park, Saturday, Oct. 19, 2013, in Conyers, Ga. The event, expected to attract 3,000 runners Saturday, is inspired by the annual running of the bulls in Pamplona, Spain and has future stops planned in Texas, Florida, California, Illinois and Pennsylvania.

Some 3,000 daredevils decked out in white outfits and red scarves dodged bulls at a Georgia horse park to get a taste of the running of the bulls, as made famous in Spain.

Horse riders herded 18 bulls into a fenced course for the event, dubbed the Great Bull Run. Many stood alongside the fence as the bulls ran by, but some tried to sprint with the animals. A few runners fell or were knocked down, but no serious injuries were reported.
