Regarding the origin of bullfighting in the northern region, it is said that an old man who loves cows went to other places to buy a domestic cow. On September 9, halfway through, a rhinoceros suddenly appeared and fought with the cow.

With everyone's help, the old man who loves cows tied two legs with a rope. Killed the rhino and saved the cow. Self-protected cattle have arrived in the village, and the weather is good every year, crops are bumper, and people and animals are prosperous.

In order to celebrate this victory, people hold a grand saddle tile activity on September 9 every year.
