Hello, I'm Yukiarashi

[Yukiarashi]

Hello I'm Yukiarashi, I'm from Colorado and have been watching sumo for almost ten years. My Grandma was from Japan and always watched it when we went and saw her and I decided to watch it and learn all the names in July 2008. I have loved it ever since and found the database the next year and this forum the year after that. I've been following this forum for seven years and finally decided to become a member. In that time, this is where I learned about the match fixing, Harumafuji, and Inosuke scandals, discovered Kintamayama's videos, and learned other news and history that's hard to find in America. My favorite rikishi are Satoyama, Arawashi, Yoshikaze, and Abi. This is my first post on a public forum. Thank you to all the people on here for all the information and coverage over the years.

Hearty salutations from the Swami!

Welcome to the community of those who post, Yukiarashi.
I guess you don't need to be told how great a place the Sumoforum is, but contributing to the discusions and playing the games makes it even greater still. Have fun!

[Yukiarashi]

I will!

Thank you for the warm welcomes
