    Tour was in an os Ute area but subway took us there easily. The food was very good (more than I expected) and I learned a lot about sumo wrestling. They were very good about participation from the audience. Had a lot of fun.

    Sumoists are friendly and funny. Make pictures with them and try to beat them with tricks, not with power!

  • Laugh with the big guys
