So mebongbong became a venue for the exchnage of ideas about agriculture, animal husbandry as well as general talk about life. The elders would entertain themselves by getting their fighting cocks to spar, without spurs, and gamble. Mebongbong was also a venue for training fighting cocks before they were taken to the fighting cock arena.

Mebongbong juga dijadikan ajang melatih ayam-ayam jagonya sebelum dibawa ke arena tajen.
