I'm from the South, so I'll probably never get a chance to try it, but ever since I saw the movie Men With Brooms, I've wanted to play. Seems like my kind of game.
Curling is, well, just not very exciting. Next I suppose we will see Olympic shuttle-board. I fail to see any sort of athleticism exhibited by its players. I cannot see steroid abuse having much of an impact on its participants
One variation I would propose is full-contact curling. As it is now, the two teams are on the ice separately. I say we should have one team playing defense while the other rolls the stone. There will be some heavy action with the brooms when the defense attempts to block the other team's brooms.
Nude curling is another idea.
