Sumo

19/11 Sumo. Fortunately the sumo championships came to Fukuoka City (close-ish) so we got the opportunity to go watch it. Sumo is alot more interesting and exciting than I had expected. It was very exciting even though the bouts don't last very long. The great thing about sumo too is you can go really close to the athletes. You can go watch them warm up and they just walk around before and after they compete. Most are really tall. One I saw was definately 7 ft. One thing I was really surprised at is how much muscle these men have. The last picture is the best display of this. Look at that muscley bum! Also their flexibility is amazing. Look at the second last photo. If only I had that flexibility, I'd be a gun at karate.
