Looks like a helluva lotta fun, honestly. Next the nanny state will ban rugby, since it’s too violent and teaches boys unruly (i.e. not feminine) behavior. Another notch in the death of jolly ‘ol England.

Of kings and days of old,
But there’s no England now.
All the wars that were won and lost
Somehow don’t seem to matter very much anymore. “ - The Kinks

If we could somehow combine curling with cheese rolling we may have the perfect sport.
