Santa Maria Bullring is holding a grand opening bull fight this weekend, Sunday, January 5. After a brief hiatus, and the passing of the previous owner Fred Renk, the bullring is back at it with a new owner and lots of updates.
As the new owner says, the calls kept coming from people wanting to know when they were going to open. When shows were going to start again. They decided to make their customers happy and begin with a grand show.
The grand opening will feature Cayetano Delgado from Monterrey, Mexico. Delgado is not new to Santa Maria Bullring. He grew up in the bullfight world, as his father was a matador, and matador David Renk, ‘El Texano,’ was his godfather.
