関根勤、初対面の相手の「雨男」発言に激怒「非科学的なことが嫌い」

Japanese entertainer Tsutomu Sekine, 73, revealed on his YouTube channel that he became furious when a stranger jokingly called him a "rain man" during a golf outing, despite his reputation for a gentle personality. Sekine, known for his mild demeanor, expressed strong dislike for unscientific superstitions like "rain man" labels. He criticized older staff members for blaming younger colleagues for bad weather on set, dismissing the notion by saying deserts would not exist if such people truly caused rain. The incident occurred when Sekine encountered a stranger at a golf course locker room during rain. After the stranger suggested Sekine was a "rain man," he slammed his locker door and left. He also recounted a separate encounter in Okinawa where a fan told him he was not funny in person.
