Just to say, I hate carnival the la vega. This carnival is not geared towards family enertainment but for hard assed fanatics who love to brag about how many hits they can take without turning red.
I was in la vega yesterday to witness the carnival this year. I just don't know why I keep going back when, everytime, I promise myself never to return again. The problem is the damn lechones (devils in masks) who carry the hard balloon type thing to hit people on their behinds. It seems like these folks have deviated from using the air filled pig gut ballon to using some sort of hard tire rubber. This thing hurts when one gets hit hard. I was unfortunate enough to get hit right on the side of my thigh. It nearly crippled me. I am all red/blue on my leg. I had seen some girls cry with pain from hits sustained by these devils. Someone has to tell the organizers that getting hit by these hard rubber is no fun and certainly doesn't spell entertainment. I am a tough guy but I buckled after getting hit by these creatures. some times they attack in groups from all sides and hit young girls and even men with full force. I just don't know how a young slim girl can take a hit so hard?
If you are going there to see girls, forget it, no girls there to be seen except roof tops or in private belconies of houses. Streets are filled with chopos and drunk tigres. parking is a disaster and bathroom facilities are scarce.
If you folks really want to enjoy a good carnival where there is no danger of getting hit hard and not to mention, seeing a ton of cute girls; go see carnival the valverde de mao. its in march and only for one day.
