Wino Posted September 23, 2009 Report Posted September 23, 2009 I saw the pictures from last year buffalo races. I have never been but it looks like a good time.
Wino Posted September 30, 2009 Report Posted September 30, 2009 Although this festival is a four day event, the actual Chonburi Buffalo race will begin at 10:30 am on Saturday, October 3. The races are traditionally held the day before the full moon of the 2nd lunar month, a date which coincides with the end of the three month Buddhist Lent. This is a very colorful event. To see riders on these huge buffalos thundering down the 100 meter race course is exciting. I hope someone can post some pictures.
lvdkeyes Posted October 3, 2009 Report Posted October 3, 2009 We went to the buffalo races today and had a good time. I will try to post some video clips tomorrow. Too tired to do it tonight.
JohnC Posted October 13, 2009 Report Posted October 13, 2009 Great day out, will definitely go again next year!
Wino Posted October 23, 2009 Report Posted October 23, 2009 I haven't been to a buffalo race in Thailand, although the one I attended in Indonesia was great fun. Perhaps I will make the next one in Chonburi. Here is a picture from the Nation.
