Sounds like fun. I might plan on going next year. Town looks very old and fun as well. :)

La Tomatina is the wolrds largest food fight. Literally, you throw tomatoes at everyone and everything. Not holds barred. I\'d wear a helmet just in case you slip and break your skull. :)

I didn\'t know that was what it was called, I have seen it though.

Waste of food if you ask me, all those ethiopian kids shitting cobwebs, and people in spain are throwing their food at each other.

Never gone, that town is in northern spain and I live in the south. It sounds funny though, but a little dirty.

The tomatina can waste, economically speaking, about 1% of what a daily breakfast costs to the USA army in Irak. Do the calculations.

Tomatoes grow like weeds anyway. One plant can yield several pounds of toMAH-toes. :)

Depends on the type of tomato, the soil and water. My parent\'s tomatoes have been producing more than they need.

You mean we are not able to waste 1000 fucking dollars in tomatoes? We are not poor, nor the richest of Europe though.

What we mean is...

Only such a culture, a culture of idiots would make a holiday  / event out of a food fight. It is so primitive, but I guess that is the only way you, primitive people can enjoy your sad lives. Don\'t feel bad, we have people like you in our country, people who are amused by such simple things, we like to call them Retards [/b].
:p
