Jaliscans pride themselves on their equestrian skills, and other entertainments include regular
charreadas
every Sunday in the Lienzo Charro, out on the road to the airport near the Parque Agua Azul (for details call 3/619-0332), and in winter
bullfights
(considered to be a sport for connoisseurs) in the Plaza Nuevo Progreso, a long way north on Calzada Independencia (tel 3/651-8506), or in the ring behind Parque Azul (tel 3/619-0315).
Soccer
and
baseball
are more popular, however, and the mighty Estadio Jalisco (tel 3/637-0563) is the enormous football stadium where FC Guadalajara (Las Chivas) play their home matches, familiar to many from the 1970 and 1986 World Cups. Buses #52C, #60, #62 and the Independencia trolley run up Calzada Independencia past the bullring and football stadium. Other useful information
