Tomatoes rain in Spain during La Tomatina the world's largest tomato fight.

Begun in 1945 as an actual street brawl near a Buñol market, residents reenacted the
epic battle for laughs the following year -- and have been doing so every year since.

Always held on the last Wednesday in August, (it takes place this year on Wednesday,
August 25, 2021).the La Tomatina Festival now attracts 20,000 revelers to Buñol who
fling an estimated 320,000 lbs. of tomatoes at each other during the annual ritual.
