[sumo] L.A. Sumo tickets

[Jim Bitgood]

I ordered my tickets (cheap seats) for the L. A. Sumo about 2 weeks 
ago. They arrived the other day in the mail. I had to sign for the 
package. It was a large manila envelope with the tickets of course 
and various little bonus items. A poster about amateur sumo, two sumo 
post cards, a small manga describing some basic sumo info for 
beginning fans, a small poster advertising the "Sumo Showdown in the 
City of Angels" (some marketing genius must have come up with that 
one), and a small 2008 calendar with a picture of all the Mongolian 
rikishi and marked with American and Mongolian holidays. It also has 
the two dates for the sumo tournament in L.A. printed in bright red ink.
The post cards are cute. They have rikishi in the foreground of the 
picture, the "HOLLYWOOD" sign in the back ground, and a sign on a 
roof reading "2008 OO-zumo Los Angeles Jungyo".
It's a nice little package. Now I just have to reserve my tent site 
at the L.A. KOA.
