Can anyone verify any of this

I'll bet by the end of the week that the 'American' turns into an 'Aussie'

A similar sounding incident happened when my wife went through Mizuno no sawa with the patrol. No punches were thrown but a bit of pushing and shoving when the guy wouldn't give up his pass. Both the poachers got away though. I cant remember nationalities but I will ask her. That was back in mid January though so could be a separate incident.

wOOt! 1-0 to the bolsheviks


lol Bolsheviks would be the admin, no? horse

On a serious note, it would be a shame for Mizuno to get closed down since they just got it opened up. Dont get me wrong, Im all for poaching ropes, but there is a time and place for it.

Mate, some places are roped off because they are genuinely dangerous. I think that Mizuno no Sawa qualifies because of slides etc... As well, it's an area that's open now if you take the few minutes it takes to do it safely. Rope duckers there probably do deserve to have their tickets taken away because one accident while being very tragic would also ruin it for everyone.
