I supported some bloody animal fight with $1 by going to a Cockfight in Otavalo, Ecuador. There were only 5 tourists; most people had gamecocks and play this "sport". They bet and play for fun and they don't need any money from visitors to keep playing.
The rules are simple. The cocks fight in a ring. The game ends when a cock dies, runs away scared, is too tired or when 20 minutes have passed.
They put metal spikes on the legs to make the fight more fun and lethal.
Here is a movie I made of part of the fight. This is all they do, it is very repetitive. It is a bit boring and I had seen enough after 3 fights.

Why do they paint to floor red? It makes cleaning easier sure, but it doesn't show the blood.
pretty nasty but some real culture. Never knew that it took so long thought it was over in some secs with that razors on there feeds.
How long does the average fight last?
BTW, I miss the hollywood special effects.
