Awesome show. Highly recommended. Fun experience. Food was ok. I got to wrestle a sumo wrestler! Only drawback was to wear a onsie when wrestling. I wanted to wear the canvas like the sumo guys had on!

If you are looking for traditional sumo wrestling , look elsewhere. This was a performance but very entertaining. Dinner included traditional chicken pot soup. Very good.

There are more with sumo wrestling than I knew. And it was fun watching. The atlets had humor, and seemed to enjoy their performance. Food was OK.
