Before Twitter my sumo sharing outlet was wikipedia. My fingerprints are all over the content through the years there. One of my projects was going to every heya and getting a pic for their respective articles. It took about a year and half to get pics of them all using my days off etc. You still have to update pics for new heya, location and name changes, but I had let it slide too long so I used the Golden Week holiday (way too crowded to go anywhere outside Tokyo anyway) to get caught up. I was too late to try to sneak a peek at much keiko and what little snippets I saw they always ask it not be put on social media. But here are some of the pics of heya, already up on wikipedia.
Let’s start with Kokonoe (now run by corner tsuppari king Chiyotaikai) and Ōshima (now run by former longevity records breaking Kyokutenhō.) Sky Tree tower is sitting pretty behind Ōshima.

Day15 spoiler. Takakeishō is truly the bowling ball! Striiike! Or maybe a spare. #Akibasho2021

So in this picture, it’s the 1964 Olympics in Tokyo and this is the Mongolian delegation. The person carrying the flag? That is Hakuho’s father, Jigjiidin Mönkhbat, who participated in wrestling for the games that year.

Isegahama: "This is only a personal opinion, but today Terunofuji ensured at least a jun-yusho. While it's better if he wins the yusho proper, as far as results go I think he has enough for promotion".
伊勢ケ浜審判部長(元横綱旭富士)が照ノ富士の横綱昇進について、個人的見解ながら「優勝か準ずる成績なら自然とそういう声も出る。今の時点で(優勝)次点は決まっている。優勝するにこしたことはないが、成績的には十分満たしている」と話した。

RIP Andy Fordham. Known as 'The Viking', Andy won the 2004 BDO World Championship and was one of the sport's most popular players. He played in 12 consecutive Lakesides from 1995 to 2006 and made a memorable comeback at the 2015 Grand Slam. Our thoughts are with his family.

That was the weirdest sumo match I have seen in my life, and Hakuho seems pissed off. On the opposite side, looks like Tobizaru just pissed his mawashi.
