The only reason I know that is because when I first moved to VT I didn't have cable and one of the few stations I got was Canadian TV and of course they showed curling a LOT.

2002 winter Olympics, I'm running a sports bar with 65 tv's. We were slow in the middle of the day during the week (naturally) and the only event they would be showing during the day was curling. After watching it 3 hours a day for 2 weeks straight, I became a big fan.

They just built a building devoted to curling here in Midland next to our community center. I had no idea it was that big here.

I agree, staredge! I couldn't think of her name to include it here. The first time I saw her I thought: "Hey, Jennifer Anniston does curling!"

Not sure if it still exists, but about 3 years ago Pittsburgh was heavy (no pun) into curling in a few areas
