Spain s famous "Tomatina" festival took place in the town of Buñol, attracting 15,000 participants. Trucks unloaded 120 tons of overripe tomatoes onto the street, resulting in a chaotic scene of red chaos. Tickets for the event started at 12 euros, and after the hour-long battle, the area was quickly cleaned with hoses. The festival originated in 1945 with a spontaneous tomato fight among local children and has since gained international attention, making it a popular tourist attraction.
