Q1 Notes on the Balinese Cockfight

I feel that the Cockfights comment on social interaction. They can show status and character of the cockfighters themselves, and the people involved in the betting. Geertz says that in the Deep Play fights money is almost a secondary thought and the first would be status. In the section Playing with Fire, Geertz gives us general facts, almost rules to cockfighting. In my opinion these facts could almost be directly related to the culture of these people. He says the Cock fights are a form of sentimentil education. I really don't know where i'm going with this help me somebody.
