My city built a Curling arena.
I realized the appeal is that poor people cannot afford to do it. Like polo.
You know, they call curling "chess on ice" due to its strategic component. I kind of scoffed when I first read that, but take a look with an open mind, read up on it, and watch a bit. Maybe it's not to chess's level of strategy, but there's certainly enough there to keep me interested.
Chess on ice??
Think I'll stick to "Curling on a Checkerboard"
