New Thing 200, New Thing Every Day: Watch Judo Competition


Judo has always seemed kind of interesting to me and I saw that the Show Me State Games has competitions here in town this weekend, so I went and watched for a bit.

It was fine.

I think maybe I expected something more exciting, like in the movies, In real life, there really isn't any throwing someone across the room or flipping them over your shoulder onto the floor. The competitions I watched were for all ages, so I saw some real variety. My favorite was watching the 10-year-old boy totally get his butt kicked by the 10-year-old girl who was maybe six inches shorter than he was.
