oh, it's fun. lots of strategy, very little athleticism.

90% of curling in world happens in Canada, and oddly enough, the granite stones that you play with are only quarried on an island off of scotland. go figure.

They probably used local materials until they discovered something better ;)

I like that game lacrosse, that looks like it would be a lot of fun (competitive but fun)

actually, i believe the sport was invented in scotland and then migrated to Canada. I think they use the same granite to ensure consistancy.

I've always wanted to try cricket. That's fairly poplular in Oz, yeah?
