It waves a red cape in front of itself for a few seconds, then gores you to a wall. Ugh! Ugh!

He punches you with both gloves, all the while chanting "Who's an animal? Your mother's an animal!" Ooh! Oof!

He pummels you mercilessly, as though you were a side of... er, him. Ooh! Ouch!


The bull screams out "Adrian!" You look behind you to see who he's talking to, and he punches you in the back of the head. Then he yells out "Adrian!" again. Man, that's annoying. Ouch! Eek!


It produces a red cape and waves it in front of itself, but you remind it that bulls are actually colorblind.

He suddenly gains an extra 30 pounds, (22 decaliters, if you're metric) and can't move to hit you.

He prepares to pummel you, but you confuse him by asking how he can do that with boxing gloves on.


He reaches back to punch you, but notices a big set of steps behind him, and starts jogging up and down them, instead.


You gain 24−42 Meat (average: 31.6, stdev: 3.5)*
You acquire an item: can of Red Minotaur (30.3% chance)*
You acquire an item: pile of jumping beans (53.1% chance)*
You gain 5 <substat>.

Occurs at South of The Border.
