Goose pulling Festival

Goose pulling (also called gander pulling, goose riding or pulling the goose) was a blood sport practised in parts of the Netherlands , Belgium, England and North America from the 17th to the 19th centuries. The sport involved fastening a live goose with a well-greased head to a rope or pole that was stretched across a road. A man riding on horseback at a full gallop would attempt to grab the bird by the neck in order to pull the head off. Sometimes a live hare was substituted. It is still practised today, using a dead goose, in parts of Belgium and in Gr-evenbicth in the Netherlands as part of shrove tuesday and in some towns in Germany as part of the Sh-rove Monday celebrations.

LA TOMATINA

                                      

Every year in valencia (Spain)  30,000 people assemble in the streets  to be a part of world largest tomato fight. More than 125,000 kg of tomatoes are brought into the city via truck so ammunition is never short. 5 massive tomato-packed rockets are exploded in the air to commence the fight. There are only two rules:

1) You must squish each tomato before throwing it so that the force of the vegetable against you target’s head will not cause injury.
2) Only tomatoes can be thrown.
