San Blas is the patron saint of Paraguay, and his feast day, February 3, is observed
throughout the country.

Asunci�n and other large cities host religious processions, and the smaller villages often
have bullfights on this day. Flowers, ribbons, and paper money (attached to the tail) adorn
the bull.

Because this event is a humorous commentary on bullfighting rather than a real bullfight,
the goal is not to kill the bull. Instead, bullfighters try to grab hold of the bull and remove
the money from its tail without getting hurt.
