Ichimon Banzuke Rogues Gallery
Chronicling some of Bench Sumo’s finer banzuke moments
Each basho there are those
significant banzuke moments (making Sanyaku for the 1st time;
becoming a sekitori;
getting to the top of the banzuke; just surviving, etc.) that are special. For
those moments, your ICF gyoji mails
an actual printed Ichimon Banzuke to those lucky few. This banzuke is more in
the form of the real banzuke
(with special Ichimon colors added, of course). If you get one in the mail,
all I ask for in return is your photo
with a traditional (or maybe not-so-tradtional) “here I am” banzuke pose. J
