1 carrera del gallo
(Sp. model spelled same [karéra ðel γájo] < Vulgar Latin * carraria, an abbreviation of via carraria 'path for carts' plus del 'of the' plus gallo < Latin gallum 'rooster')According to Blevins, a cowboy pastime in which a rooster is buried up to its neck, and a rider tries to pull or jerk it out of the ground while riding a horse. The rooster seldom survives the game. Islas references a similar game, known in Mexico as carrera del pollo or carrera del gallo. He says it is common at parties held on ranches and in communities in the northern and central regions of Mexico. In the Mexican version of the game, one rider holds a rooster in his right hand and a second rider pursues him, trying to grab the rooster.
