The IAD is in financial trouble. Please read here.
It all begins when a large crowd (anyone want to guess how many there were) is sitting in a huge stadium. A blimp with the letters XLNT flies over the stadium. I myself happen to be a Spanish student and that isn't the way it's spelled (actually spelled E-X-C-E-L-L-E-N-T-E), but who cares? It's supposed to make it funny (at least if you know Spanish like I do otherwise it's just over your head). A matador is shown and a bull comes running out of the stables. The matador waves his cape and the bull charges over to it.
Meanwhile, Goofy is seen driving down a rural gravel road. He stops to see that there is a cow (or so he thinks) sitting in his path. Goofy gets out and tries to shoo her away, but she won't budge. A Mexican looks at Goofy and watches in amazement ( this scene has been edited out thanks to those stupid Disney people). Goofy takes out his red handkerchief and the cow (actually a bull) starts running like mad. The Mexican farmers shout "Ole!" (this scene was also edited out) Goofy then manages to get going and drives into town. When he arrives, the Mexicans all greet him and dress him up as a matador. Goofy must've felt really special. Then he walks out into the middle of the stadium. A sheet of paper that shows Goofy's picture and says that he is the matador falls down on the ground by Goofy and he sees it. "Fighter of the bull? Me?", is what he shouts. Hh runs into the bulls stable by mistake. Lighting a match, he sees the bull, runs out, and screams. Goofy tries at all odds to escape the bull. For example, he climbs into the crowd, but they throw him back into the bullring. Goofy climbs onto a pull, but gets tangled onto the bull's horn and the bull swings him around.
Well, by now poor Goofy has had enough and hops into his car and tries to drive away, but the strings on his suit are still tangled. His car gets ahead of him and he is pulled back into the stadium by the bull. We then see that the bull is knocked unconscious and Goofy is showered with sombreros. At the end, Goofy is driving home with his sombrero souvenirs and he comes upon a bull (or so he thinks). He sneaks behind it and quickly drives off. The bull is actually a cow. Another flaw in this short was the incident with the matador. When a matador is fighting the bull, he actually sticks a sword in the bull, eventually ending up killing it. In my opinion, that is pretty barbaric. However, there is one thing that puzzles me. Why did Disney edit out the scenes with the Mexicans talking to each other on the phone? I don't believe that is stereotyping Mexicans. They were just talking to each other.
In conclusion, there is really nothing funny about bullfighting, but when it comes to the two cartoons mentioned above it is just out fun.
