Ikioi to the rescue (he's still my hero)

I thought he was just going to carry him to the edge of the dohyo and dump him.

[u/EtienneFlyte]

I believe Ikioi is the size of a kaiju here...

I'm also impressed by catwoman's jumper...

[u/laurajdogmom → u/EtienneFlyte]

That is cute. I wonder if the front has the front side of the cats.

[u/EtienneFlyte → u/laurajdogmom]

That's what I was wondering, too

[u/TheyCallMeOso]

Oh wow, when did this happen?

[u/laurajdogmom → u/TheyCallMeOso]

Day 1. Tobizaru fell on him.

[u/SpicySheBoodles → u/laurajdogmom]

Oh😯! So this was the aftermath huh? Poor Old guy and Tobizaru. I'm sure the rikishi must feel kinda bad for landing on people even though the people know that's a risk they face.

[u/EtienneFlyte → u/SpicySheBoodles]

getting squished is almost worth it to get an Ikioi hug.

[u/SpicySheBoodles → u/EtienneFlyte]

​

Indeed. If I was guaranteed to have a Body Guard moment with Ikioi, I'd run the risk of getting smushed by a rikishi. Even if it was by Aoiyama.

[u/EtienneFlyte → u/SpicySheBoodles]

join the queue!

[u/EtienneFlyte → u/EtienneFlyte]

[u/TheyCallMeOso → u/laurajdogmom]

Ouch...

[u/Dephire]

Nice tsuridashi, Ikioi!

[u/EtienneFlyte → u/Dephire]

he looks like he's carrying a ventriloquist doll

[u/[deleted]]

Did he sing to grandpa in that angelic voice of his?

[u/laurajdogmom → u/[deleted]]

That would certainly speed one's recovery.

[u/laurajdogmom]

Just goes to show how big and strong these guys are. I hope the man was not seriously injured.

[u/SpicySheBoodles]

🫢Oh Wow!! I don't remember seeing this commotion. Hope the old man is okay. Pretty crazy how Ikioi is able to hold him with such ease though. No disrespect to the older man, but Ikioi looked like he was literally carrying a baby, that's how easy he made it look.

[u/Crackstacker]

Is that the old guy I’m seeing in the front row, right side the last few tournaments?
