history
  •  including the Running of the Bulls - in Pamplona, Spain; this annual test of manhood is part the festival that begins at noon on the first Sunday and runs until midnight 9 days later.  A rocket fired from town hall in the morning announces the release of the bulls, who stampede through the streets of Pamplona on their way to the bullring.  Only men are allowed to run with the bulls, and they can only carry a rolled-up newspaper for protection.  Veterans (" afficianados") wear white clothes and scarlet scarves
