[sumo] Senshuraku Tickets

[Dale Carlson]

The NSK website says that the last day of Natsubasho 
is already sold out. Isn't it kinda early for that?

Someone purchased a ticket for me a few hours ago.
It was supposedly the last one available. Is it likely
that more seats will become available later on?

BTW, those of you who know Ken Coller (master
sumo DVD maker :) might want to know that he
is in the hospital right now, having had surgery this
morning to fix his neck. It's been a source of severe
pain for him for several years. I spoke with him and his
significant other Linda tonight, and the operation went 
very well. He's really looking forward to regaining a lot 
of mobility (and losing a lot of pain) as soon as he 
recovers. I suspect he's kinda enjoying the morphine
drip and he thinks he's watching a Taiho-Asashoryu 
yusho ketteisen as I type this :)
