The candela ball is a traditional cultural activity of the Colombian Caribbean Coast, typical of some patron saint festivities in some municipalities. In this game a rag ball is made, sprayed with some fuel like gas or ACPM, it is lit by fire, and with it on, a group of people starts kicking it and throwing it back and forth, which sometimes becomes a dangerous game.
