There are many games of speed (e.g. skeleton, luge, speed skating) in the Winter Olympics but one of the slowest games is probably Curling.
The people who thought it is easy to throw a granite stone weighing 20kg has no idea the challenge and fun in the game. Curling is a game of great skills, strategy, and sometimes luck. It is is games of the tiniest margin. And how often can you something as tiny as a human hair affecting the result of a game?
Canada women team just won its semi-final game against Switzerland and is going to compete for gold! Great job Cheryl Bernard and her Calgary team based in the Calgary Curling Club (established 1888).
Go Canada Go !!!
