TOKYO — We love covering the games here at KSL, but we also love seeing our team experience the culture.

Olympic Specialist Shara Park did something we never thought she would do on Tuesday — try authentic Japanese sushi.

Shara is not a seafood fan, but after some convincing from Jeremiah Jensen, the team visited a nearby restaurant.

Just look at @JJSportsBeat & @KSL_AlexCabrero loving the fact that I might make a huge fool of myself while trying to eat sushi for the first time, and I did. 🍣 And now you get to watch it too! Don’t judge, I hate seafood. 😂 Story coming up around 6:30am on @KSL5TV. pic.twitter.com/roVEhxMbot

Let’s just say … things didn’t go so well for Shara.
