Dario Holmes recounts his personal experience attending his first bullfight in Quito with his father. Though initially against bullfighting, Dario became excited by the adrenaline of the crowd cheering "Ole" and rooting for the bullfighter. He began to see bullfighting not just as a game but as a test of strength between bull and fighter, with the bull fighting honorably for its life. The experience left Dario with an appreciation for the primal competitiveness in human nature that allows people to excel over other species and form complex societies.
