Calcio Storico Video

Festival Location: Florence, Italy

Festival Type(s): Bizarre Festivals , Bizarre Sports Events, Combat Sports Events

A fascinating look (albeit in Italian) at one of the last remaining true gladitorial sporting events. Calcio Storico is a mixture of bare-knuckle boxing and football - a no holds barred affair with a helluva lot of blood spilt. Take a peek at the vid if you're partial to a little muddy, manly violence.
