Do they burn a new man every year or do they burn the same person annually?
41 0 ReplyIt's short for "Burning Manny". There's one guy, Manuel Asada, and they burn him every year. It's cool though, he's into it.

What's the story behind this? Who is Manuel Asada?
4 0 Reply"Manuel Asada" is the closest I could get to a person's name that means "burning man". Asada is Spanish for roasted or grilled.
