I disagree. I enjoyed the tuna auction, but then I
really like tuna.
Actually being there was entirely different than seeing it on video, actually I hate to watch any sort of auction on video, but they are interesting in person, assuming you can follow the bidding at all, comprehend the amount of money involved.
Tsukiji was actually my second auction on that trip, I also attended a private art auction earlier in the week, saw more tattoos that day than the entire trip (and no, it wasn't that kind of art. No, not "that" kind either).
