LAS VEGAS (May 28, 2009) /PRNewswire/ — A storied tradition south of the border and in many countries around the world, bloodless bullfighting courtesy of Don Bull Productions, will make its mark in the United States and Las Vegas in celebration of Mexican Independence Day at the South Point Hotel & Casino September 14 - 15 and return with four more days filled with pageantry September 27 - 30.
