Goodbye, Toros...

This weekend, Catalonia marked the end of an era with the region's final bull fight. A tradition spanning over 600 years, a ban on bullfighting in the Catalan region begins on January 1st. Bullfighting is a controversial part of Spanish tradition. With declining tv viewers and ticket sales, has the public been slowly rejecting the practice, or is it a larger issue in a move away from Spanish tradition? Is it that bullfighting, a part of Spanish tradition for centuries, is now looked at as inhumane and therefore, the population wants to attend less. Or a bigger picture, a move away from Spanish traditions, that people do not have the time or receive the same viewing pleasure as past generations did.
