Originally intended for the religious occasion, cockfight was become a very popular gambling game in Bali, and can be so addictive. And now this kind of gambling is illegal with a high penalty. It can only be held in a secular occasion as a part of the ceremony.

This performance is believed by the Balinese as the way to satisfy the hunger of the evil spirits by providing the spilt blood during this cockfight. If you lucky enough to witness cockfight, is just don’t miss it. But it might makes you stay away from chicken satay for a while.
