Kintamayama 45,119 Posted September 22, 2003 (edited) some nice ones: Asashouryuu, family and Cup: Sansho winners: Left to right: Wakanosato, Takamisakari, Kyokutenhou and Iwakiyama The tsuridashi against Mickey which allegedly caused his hip pains: Asashouryuu, after beating Taikai and clinching the Yusho, daring a heckling spectator to come out on the dohyo and "get it on, Mano e Mano!!" (well, sure looks like it..) Edited September 22, 2003 by Kintamayama Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Yoavoshimaru 0 Posted September 22, 2003 Looks like the baby would fit nicely inside the cup! :-) By the way, how shocked would people be if the yusho winner filled the Emperor's Cup with beer and drank out of it? :-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Naifuzan 1 Posted September 22, 2003 By the way, how shocked would people be if the yusho winner filled the Emperor's Cup with beer and drank out of it? I think I saw a picture in a swedish newspaper about asashoryu doing just that a while ago. Might have been another similar cup... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think I saw a picture in a swedish newspaper about asashoryu doing just that a while ago. Might have been another similar cup... Well, they do fill it with sake and drink, so I assume that was it rather than beer... Somehow, whatever the Kyokai's new view on rikishi doing commercials, I don't think a Heineken commercial where Asashoryu drank beer from the tenno shihai would be so popular with Kitanoumi et al... ;-) Edited September 22, 2003 by Yubiquitoyama Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
