Carnival vs Fallas

Welcome ladies and gentlemen, my name is Alessandra Magnone and I'm here today to present the first battle of the parties in the region.
On the right, celebrating it for 400 years:
FALLAS
And to the left, being part of Vinaros since the fifteenth century ...
CARNIVAL
And as representants there are Amaya Ngostí from Vinaros and Haquihay Carchofes from Benicarló.

ROUND 1
                            - At fallas girls wear pretty dresses. 
                            - But these dresses are pompous and uncomfortable. At Carnival, we can use what                                we want.
                             -At fallas we do a procession offering flowers to the virgin and...
                             -And it's so boring! In carnival we don't do processions, we make a great parade                                         with lots of people, floats and extravagant costumes!

Ow! Ladies and gentlemen, I think the carnival won this round. That must have hurt!

                                        - In carnival you can wear a pajama 
                                        - I wear a pajama every night in my house. That's not a special thing.
                                        -In carnival we dress up with funny costumes and we go partyng with                                                   friends
                                        - We go partyng in fallas too and we have more fun. And we burn thinks!

 Well that's true... it can't be a party without fire. Fallas won the second round!

ROUND 3

                                    -CARNIVAL IS BEST!
                                    -Really? We are in a serious battle. Don't be childish!
                                    - I'm not childish, Benicarló is rubbish. Who wants an artichoke as a symbol?
                                    - What? And you? Your symbol is a shrimp! Vinaros is worst!
                                    -Sorry? I think I misheard! You are always making noise with your squibs                                          and firecrackers! I think you only want to attract attention!
                                     -You are a big *******

Well ladies and gentlemen, I think we should end this program. Bye-Bye!
