As promised, here’s a video of our beloved founders sumo wrestling as a reward for Yahoos being kind to the earth. Quick recap: Employees at our Sunnyvale headquarters were issued an Earth Day challenged to reduce non-renewable resource consumption by 20% over a week. In payment, Jerry Yang and David Filo donned appropriately ivy-laden sumo suits and went to the mat.
Watch those instant replays carefully and tell us who you think really won…

The power delta is crystal clear! Hope Yahoo be around forever…
Catch my drift please.

How cool is it that we work at a company where our co-founders still sumo wrestle?! It doesn’t matter who won, the fact that they and us can take time out of an action-packed week to have some fun is why i work here.

There you can see clearly where Filo did in fact step out before Jerry’s ultimate fall. Oh well, great match and lots of fun!
