Description:
- There are six Sumo Grand Tournaments a year, and this is one of them. The goal of sumo is to throw your opponent out of the 4.5-meter ring or force him to touch the ground with any part of his body but the soles of his feet. Sumo, Japan's most popular sport, is steeped in ritual and ceremony. Everything from the salt-throwing, pre-game posturing to the way to accept defeat has been carefully honed over the ages. This is a tradition not to be missed.
