Corrida Clown
In baggy clothes and greasepaint to protect fallen matadors

A corrida clown with barrel would lend color to the bullring and distract an angry bull about to make the bullfight gory.

Also if the bull can oust a cowboy from its back within 10 seconds, its life will be spared. In that case, instead of an ear, the matador should be presented with a clown-sculpted balloon dog.

Apprentice clowns would train with mechanical bar bulls and final exams will take place on Pamplona street corners.

       Maybe the crowds could hurl peeled plum tomatos at the "would be run clowns" to get everyone right into the spirit of things.
