Too Many 12-oz Curls for Canadian Curling Team |
2018-11-21 |
The Canadian team reportedly broke curling brooms and damaged the locker room, as well, according to CNN. The team, including the 2014 Olympic Gold Medal winner Ryan Fry, were forced to forfeit their final game at the Red Deer Curling Classic in Alberta on Sunday. "They went out to curl, and they were extremely drunk and breaking brooms and swearing and just unacceptable behavior that nobody wants to watch or hear or listen to, and it was just ’enough was enough," said Facility manager Wade Thurber told CBC Sports. Fry soon took to Twitter to issue an apology for his behavior. "I want to express how sorry I am to everyone affected by my actions on Saturday," Fry tweeted on Monday. "I never meant to offend anyone, but that’s the result of a poor decision ‐ I have to live with the consequences and will be taking every step needed to guarantee this never happens again." |

#3 The notable thing about this story is that the drunken miscreants apologized - an actual apology apology. Not one of those modern "I'm sorry you were offended" or "I'm a victim of my impulses" things. |

#2 That is a game that had to be invented by bored drinkers. |

#1 I suspect National Football League behaviors would deeply offend facility manager Thurber's sensibilities. |
