Portugal's bullfight is a Cowboy's Field Day! "Nobody gets hurt, not even the bull, but a Portuguese bullfight takes hard riding and rodeo style steer 'rasslin." writes Bob LaForce, an American friend of Canadian Club. "I played bullfighter at the quinta, or ranch, of my friend Jose Rodrigues outside Lisbon. Jose is a professional bullfighter, one of Portugal's greatest, but even he might have had trouble with the big toro that thundered across to charge my horse. "Facing the bull on foot after placing the longed barbed rejones in its shoulder pad, I was knocked off my feet. Traveling fast, the bull packed a wallop that tossed me into the air on a pair of sheathed horns. It took a lot of tossings before some more amateurs and I made the bull stand still and bring his head down. One man had to throw himself between the horns while the rest of us piled on. Tough way to make a fighting bull say, 'Uncle!'" ..... 1957 Canadian Club Whisky Ad, A5058A.
