La tomatina is a huge tomato battle where more than thousands of ripe tomatoes are thrown in the streets of Spain. People attend from all over the world. This is a festival which held on the last Wednesday of August every year in town of Bunol in the region of Spain. People enjoyed this so much that has become a tradition. The most popular theories about how the Tomatina started is that in 1945, during the prade of " Little Rabbit " some woodland animals were eating all the watermelon so, the people at the prade threw tomatoes at the animals; one missd and hit a person. Then they started throwing the tomatoes and the police had to attack everyone. However, there are many other theories. The following year young people repeated the fight on the same Wednesday and only this time they brought thier own tomatoes from home. At first it was illegal but in 1950, the town allowed the tomato hurl to take place. The tomatoes come from Extremadura, where they are less expensive and are grown specifically for the holidays, being of inferior taste.
