178: Nishikigi and the Slow Risers

After lots of news, Leslie gives us some info on Nishikigi and his record as third slowest to rise to sanyaku. Which got us thinking... so, who was even slower? BINGO starts next week! Our Sumo Kaboom BINGO game is available to play every basho. 500 BINGO cards are available the Thursday before the basho begins. Go to www.sumokaboom.com for more details and to sign up. It's free.
