el cuerno del año

A satirical annual award given in the town of Monte Cristy (Dominican Republic) to the woman rumored to have been cheated on the most that year. The victim is presented with a scroll by a caravan of motorcycle taxi drivers (motoconchos) dressed in suit jackets. The symbol of the prize is a cow head with horns (in Hispanic culture, growing horns is a metaphor for being cheated on). This public mockery is extremely inflammatory and has led to violent retaliation and deaths involving the husbands and the organizers.

Hey, I see a cloud of smoke on the horizon. What could it be? I think it is the national commission of el cuerno del año coming this way.
