Instead of wasting time writing their name, they place their hand in ink, then slap it down on a card so you get their huge paw print. Much more interesting than an autograph I think and probably a lot quicker for them to pump out a couple of hundred for the paying masses. I got Terao's.

Well I guess we were at the same Basho then! I was there for the September basho. One of the earlier days, can't remember exactly but Akebono was already injured so I didn't get to see him, which was a shame. Terao was my favourite, not for his looks(!), but cos he was so small compared to most of them and still more than held his own. Title: Re: If you could attend 5 sporting events...

He was also the first Mongolian to make it into the top pro ranks. His nickname was the department store, because of his range of techniques, but the governing body told him to stop using a lot of his throws that were unorthodox as they risked injury to his opponents.

Video found on youtube from Sunday´s 1-1 draw. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gsUBXOXoc64 The game stopped 30 mins into the second half so the fans can have a bit of a sing song and fireworks display.

It's worth going to if you're HK don't get me wrong. Amazing and unique venue for racing, really stunning. Definitely worth going just to see that. But on the two occasions I was there there was zero atmosphere. Went to Sha Tin too, and that was even worse (even though the quality of racing was 100 times better).

Post by: Jamier-Host on May 11, 2013, 07:17:38 AM Too hard to order them but: - Augusta (I guess final day but not fussed) - Big Lions game in southern hemisphere - Superbowl - Big boxing/MMA fight in Vegas - Some sort of championship cock fight in South America (last one prob a bit controversial but went to one on honeymoon in Bali and was buzzing) buy @ "bit controversial" Bear fighting, badger baiting, fox hunting and dog fighting are fun too I hear. Bull fighting probably bigger but wasn't a fan of that. Nearly got beaten up for cheering on the bull. Title: Re: If you could attend 5 sporting events...
