It seems that Yuki Itami, who joined Yoshimoto Shinkigeki and was named the “2019 Nishinomiya Shrine Second Lucky Man,” is from Nishinomiya City.

Added 6/4
At the end of the Yoshimoto Shinkigeki broadcast aired on 6/1, during the “new members have joined” segment, Yuki Itami was the first to give his greeting.
Along with the gag, “I’m not Haneda. Who are you calling Narita or Itami!” he clearly mentioned Nishinomiya, saying, “I’m Yuki Itami, the Nishinomiya Shrine Second Lucky Man!”
【Achieved】His dream was to stand on the Yoshimoto Shinkigeki stage
At the Nishinomiya Shrine press conference, Yuki Itami said, “In the future, I want to stand on the Yoshimoto Shinkigeki stage,” and now he has already made that dream come true.
He has an amazing background, having competed at the Inter-High School Championships as a 400-meter relay runner in his third year of high school. From here on, as a comedian from Nishinomiya, we hope he’ll talk about new dreams too. We’re sure he’ll keep making them happen one after another.
Finally
Yuki Itami’s name is Itami, but he’s from Nishinomiya.
We’d love to see him appear on this year’s “Hitoshi Matsumoto’s Suberanai Hanashi.” And it would be great if he talked about Nishinomiya too. Nishi2 is cheering on Yuki Itami, who is from Nishinomiya!
