Sweden knew Canada’s Marc Kennedy was a notorious cheater.

So they set up a camera at the ‘hog line’ to record it.

And caught him doing it at the Olympics.

        I mean they make way too much money so you could argue yes I suppose. But curling is just… Weird… Like that thing where they chase wheels of cheese down a hill makes more sense than curling.

          It makes sense if you understand its historical context. Its a traditional winter game from the 16th century when people were bored out of their minds in the cold ass scottland winters.

      Purpose? I’ve never got to play, but if there was a curling rink outside of a bar in the winter it would be tons of fun to play with friends. None near me though
