I wonder; what's the difference between 祟り (tatari) and 呪い (noroi)?

I think that the Colonel was rescued from the murky waters of the Dotonbory in 2009, but apparently he still holds a grudge. The Tigers have had a terrible season this year...

I wonder if this is why Rena finds a Colonel Sanders in the dump in Higurashi...

They found that colonel a few years ago. They fished him out of the river. One article on it is on the link.

The Last part is wrong!! They did find Sanders!! About two years ago workers tasked with cleaning up the river raised the statue from the salty depths of the murky water...and what did they find? It was a completely SILVER statue of Sanders in all his cursing glory... To celebrate (profit) they fashioned a key chain with two mini statues of Sanders, one silver and one regular, attached to it. Whether anyone actually bought one is still a mystery... I am not making this stuff up... ONLY IN JAPAN!

I bet if you look for some pics or even the key chain online you can find some!!

I thought they found the hand further downriver.

As an update, the statue HAS BEEN FOUND. He's still missing a hand and his glasses, though, so maybe the curse still stands...?

ケンチキ is a really awesome word. I think I'm going to say "Kenchicken" now in English instead of KFC!! xD

Just like the Boston Red Socks curse, who's to say whats real... if they believe it to be true, it will probably be true for them

Haha. Poor Colonel. Chucked into the river without a second chance.
I asked my host parents about this and they just gave me weird looks as I tried to explain in my broken Japanese what the hell I was talking about. XDD
That goes to show you what reading tofugu blogs will do to you :P

I bet The Waterboy would have watched out a bit more in Colonel Sanders class if he knew how skilled he was with a blade.

Adam Sandler is lucky he caught him by surprise when he tackled him. haha
