Mr Romero died after a bull's horn pierced his neck and lungs during the half mile sprint through the cobbled streets of the northern Spanish town.
He is the first man to be gored to death during the run for 14 years.
He was brought down by a 1,130 lb (515 KG) brown beast named Cappucino which became disorientated and aggressive after separating from the pack of bulls.
Each morning at 8 o'clock during the eight-day fiesta six fighting bulls are released to stampede through the winding streets to the bullring.
