Brilio.net/en - The Tianyang county of China recently caught in the headlines for the Buluotuo cultural festival, a yearly tradition to celebrate tomato harvests. For three days every year, the local Zhuang community of this region will commemorate the carnival. To top things off, a wrestling match is held not in the old-school wresting ring as you would expect, but on pool of bright red tomatoes 30 centimeters tall! How bizarre is that?
Oh well, the festival doesnt seem to be a jolly one amongst those fighters. As you would have noticed, they show absolutely no mercy when it comes to wrestling against their compatriots. After all, it is very similar to a regular wrestling match, except that most of the red marks inflicted upon the people are that of tomatoes and not blood!
