Tejo is a traditional sport popular in Colombia, where players throw metal discs, called "tejos," at a target filled with explosives. The objective is to hit the target, which creates a loud bang and a cloud of smoke, adding excitement to the game. Tejo is often played in outdoor settings, such as parks or dedicated fields, and is enjoyed by people of all ages.
The game has its origins in the indigenous Muisca culture and has evolved over time. Tejo is not only a competitive sport but also a social activity, often accompanied by food and drinks, making it a popular pastime during gatherings and celebrations.
