Day 88: Tag teams

Surely one of the most bizarre spectacles I´ve witnessed. Bolivians love their wrestling, but this is a far cry from Big Daddy on World of Sport. Women fight each other dressed in their traditional garb, men are dressed up like super heroes and dwarves provide the love interest. Spectators exchange blows with the competitors and express their dislike of the "bad guy" by throwing food into the ring.

As if that wasn´t weird enough, the distinct tones of Rick Astley could be heard on the loudspeakers.
