Sumo champion

Yesterday, sumo wrestling champion, Asashoryu, a Mongolian who retired recently after allegations of a street brawl in Tokyo, came home to Ulan Bataar. He was greeted like a returning conqueror by cheering crowds. They took him to a hospital so he could kiss a newborn baby, but he couldn't fit into one of the visitors' gowns, so it was draped across his shoulders like a cape.
