Konishiki Sighting


I received the following from my son-in-law in Salt Lake City.   I
thought it was interesting that he was traveling with film crew. Preparing
for a TV show maybe?

Hey have you ever heard of the American Sumo wrestler named Konishiki (now
retired)?  He was in town last week visiting his sister and brought a
Japanese film crew in tow.  One of the guys I work with was able to drive
him around for a few days and show him the sights. They even got to have
dinner at Karl Malone's house with he and his family.  I don't follow Sumo,
so I wasn't sure just how famous he was (if at all).
