A: Hey there! 🎉 Did you catch the news yesterday?
   B: No, what's up?

A: Well, I saw something fun on Marine Day! Check this out - they had a tug-of-war contest on the sea in Matsue, Shimane Prefecture!
   B: Sea tug-of-war?! Sounds amazing! Who won?

A: There were two teams with five members each, standing on floating platforms and pulling on opposite ends of a rope. To win, they had to either bring the middle section of the rope into their area or make all opponents fall off their platform into the water.
   B: Wow, that's intense! Did anyone fall in?

A: Oh yes! Spectators went wild when competitors took a dip! 🌊 It seems like everyone was giving it their best, pulling in unison.
   B: That sounds like so much fun! Do they do this every year?

A: Yup, looks like a local woman in her 30s said she takes part in the event every year and enjoys it a lot. She even mentioned looking forward to a barbecue at the beach afterwards. 🍖
