BUÑOL SPAIN (40 kms from VALENCIA). (25 AUGUST 2010) LA TOMATINA

Tens of thousands of participants go from all over the world to fight in a harmless battle where more than one hundred metric tons of tomatoes are thrown in the streets. At around 11 a .m. the first event of the Tomatina begins. A ham is placed upon a cocking pole (a large, greased pole), and the tomato fight can begin only when someone is able to climb to the top and bring it down. People struggle against each other, climbing atop one another, in order to be the one to pull down the ham. With this victory, the tomato-throwing begins.
