The Most Awkward Athlete Wardrobe Malfunctions Ever

Chances are that when someone mentions athletics, your brain's first stop is not bullfighting. That said, it is a sport that clearly takes tremendous skill, a plethora of bravado, and a risk-taking attitude. After all, how many of us everyday citizens would ever even attempt to go toe-to-toe with a wild animal, let alone one with horns and major attitude problems? Of all the risks associated with bullfighting, wardrobe issues seem pretty far down the list, too, but that does not mean that it can't happen or that it is not awkward when it does.

Take Alvaro Marin, for example. According to HuffPost, Marin's mishap occurred during a bullfight to mark the Day of the Dead, which is a holiday that originated in Mexico and is meant to honor those who have passed. The Colombian bullfighter made international headlines when his trousers tore during the fight, exposing his buns to the air. He tried to cover up a bit, though dodging the still-angry bull obviously took precedent over covering his cheeks. Marin was eventually handed a piece of material, which he fashioned almost like a diaper, and when that stopped working, his handlers gave him a pair of flowered swim shorts to cover up.
