Sumo

People make up games all the time.

Sometimes it is as simple as the desire to pass the time.

Sometimes it is to help develop skills in ourselves or our children.

I had the opportunity to witness one day in the current Sumo festival in Tokyo.  

This turned out to be a fascinating game and contest of wills.  There was so much pomp and ceremony to it.  I really can't image who created this game in the first place.

However, it really doesn't matter.  I enjoyed the event thoroughly.  :-)
