Well, it has been a long time since we went and watched sumo live. We didn't realize that we would be watching part of history since it has been ten years since a Japanese Sumo Wrestler has won a tournament. We went on the second to last day and saw Hakuho the greatest Sumo wrestler ever lose on the final match of the day setting up the historic last day where Kotoshogiku won the tournament. We went with our friends Troy and Aya and couldn't have scripted a better day.

A nice pre-tournament beverage.

I was so excited to be picked up by one of the most popular wrestlers!

Inside the arena. Our seats were dope!
Our favorite beer girl! She would come by our seats to fill up our glasses. Who needs to get out of their seats for a refill? Not us!
