A date at the Cockfights!

In this new video a Dominican Couple is on a "date" at the local Cock Fight in Monte Christe in the Dominican Republic. This couple dances Bachata while the gallos or roosters get prepared to fight to the death. Seemed like a strange scene to us so we shot some footage and posted this short clip.
