Most of us have a routine/workout schedule we follow as we're training for a certain sport. These habits usually intensify as the level increases and by the tIME you're competing at national level, training takes up a riDICulous amount of time. So it is here in the phils, the filipino ppl put lOADs of effort in their national sport: cockfighting.
These A-framed homes and also other similar cages litter the side of the roads here...with the rooster tied UP on a leash by its ankle! and they crow ALL day long.
Also as a way to gamble, these guys are CONstantly feeding, watering, and TRAINing their roosters for the big fight! I'm not sure of what that all consists of, but i DID see this one guy making his rooster go around&round in circles. In the actual fight they tie rAzOrs onto the poor roosters legs and the fight isn't over until enough blood has shed and one backs off, or until dEAth! nuts huh? I'm CURrently trying to figure out how to get the IN on these fights, and attend one :|, it'd be like...going to a leafs game, only, filipino-style. To ease my grandparents minds, i will mostly likely NOT be able to find one, these guys aren't the usual crowd I run with here in Davao, plUS my curfew is ten o'clock.
