Getting the last bit of videos and photos I can find. I'll do a blog most likely tomorrow on it. I thought this was rather ingenious of TBS. That way they keep a momento of their day they tested out the Sasuke obstacles and they get a reminder when to watch it on television! People don't really keep tissue packs. If they do they'll probably find it in their bag a month after the show airs. They are extremely cheap PR though.

Yuuji did that flawlessly, but Kanno, what a legend.

From the various pics it looks like it was a great success, and I agree with you about merchandising arsenette - I really hope they will offer more items to be bought online, and offer international shipping (affordable please!)
Would love a Sasuke t-shirt, ,towel etc etc

Still though, you are correct that it's super cheap PR and they were at least smart to have the date on it in the off chance those who enjoyed themselves wanted to double check the date. Also one thing that kinda frustrates me is that they have the commercial out (during the event on an endless loop running on a cheap TV screen) but haven't aired it yet. Inui keeps saying soon™ but honestly don't know why TBS is so slow in releasing it! Btw one more photo that I think ya'll would appreciate (and a quick story to make it funnier) Kong sitting on Torisawa's shouldersSeems that Kong showed up for the day wearing normal clothes. Everyone was expected to have a shirt given to them by the team (so they can wear/model it in order for people to buy them). Well.. the production team woefully underestimated how many shirts were going to be sold because they didn't even have enough shirts for the testers/guest to wear by the 2nd day! LOL So Kong had to wear his own shirt which turned out to be cross promotion for ANW.

LOL Guys.. contain yourselves A couple of the exclusive shirts: They look AWESOME! What I'd give for one myself. ^^ I know a certain SMF regular who may have acquired a shirt remarkably similar to those. And his name Rhymes with "Colin Rider Dangle Schaeffer"... or something ;-)

Kong even had rolled up sleeves on Saturday when he had to wear a regular Sasuke t-shirt, so the sun's always out with him haha. Then there's Kanno who just walked around without a shirt for half the event =P
My arms are still killing me from having to do the pipe slider (backwards) for almost every single person who tried it... It was a good idea at first because it was much faster than taking the bar down, walking it back and resetting it, but **** that got tiring (>_<) Despite that, it was one of the best days of my life =)

Working on blog now but ran into the 2nd video (same kid from earlier) this time pwning the pipe slider. LOL (Shout out to Jin for having to set that up by going backwards all day long.. /comfort on your forearms LOL) Short video of a little girl trying the wall.. LOL Another amazing video of a little kid who could at least traverse the CCH ledges. Warped wall (patrons were not allowed to completely climb it - insurance issues) CCH

I logged in ready to do Navi (before I got headaches...) and I was going .. wait that's not right.. then did my normal searches and noticed it. Made sense after that. LOL

Yuuji keeps on impressing! That was awesome! I'm a bit surprised that Ryo couldn't do it though. Maybe he'll put up a response video of him making that gap on his YouTube channel in the near future. Also, in the beginning of the video, it was cool to see a few of the guys try the RiderLeangle™ jump on the CCH. Thanks to you and Yuuji for sharing the video!

No offense to Rider.. but that "technique" has been around much longer. I know it's fun to claim an SMF technique but I had to say something about that.
