The face goring or the killing of the bull?

Yes.

OK, got it. They should've given the bull a trophy and set him up with a ranch house and a herd of ho' heifers for life.

Exactly. Then the bull would have
really won.
I think it's awful that this fellow got injured, but I don't have a hell of a lot of sympathy for him. He knew the risks going in. This sort of thing is to be expected. And if there weren't any danger in the "sport," then it wouldn't be very exciting to begin with. Assuming you think torturing and killing an animal is exciting.
People think "queue" is just "q" followed by 4 silent letters.
But those letters are not silent.
They're just waiting their turn.

Watching someone else risk their life IS exciting in that 'arena' sort of environment.
But it's a barbaric excitement.

I once had a granddad who pissed off a bull so it kicked him, shattering his hip. As I despised my granddad I secretly laughed at his misfortune. I feel the same way about bullfighters.
But, then again, how many here eat meat:
Blah, blah, blah

Our carnivorous proclivities are not really germane to this discussion though are they? I don't run around sticking spikes into pigs and goading them before I have a chop. Not usually.

Ouch! Yes fair play to the bull. You'd have to be a pretty shit bullfighter to have this happen to you, I imagine. Maybe he was texting at the time, or something.

Other reports of the incident are saying that "the crowd screamed in horror" when this happened. Why? Weren't they
there to see blood spilt? Shouldn't they have been
cheering?
Hypocritical wankers.

Au contraire. I can assure you that, having worked in a slaughter house many years ago ( when I was a just a wee lad) there is much that would strike a fellow biped like yourself as both repulsive and inhumane. I don't think people quite realize the suffering that is inflicted upon the hapless beasts to ensure that we are all well fed (or at least some of us).
Bon appetit... And what of the poor lobsters who are submerged in boiling water? Oh, well, maybe someone can start another thread for that.
