shropshire 0 #1 February 18, 2006 my vote - Skeleton.... looks like tracking (steers the same?) - with your nose a couple of centometers from the ice and at 100+ k.p.h (.)Y(.)

SkiD_PL8 0 #11 February 18, 2006 fuck off turtle... someone had to do it right? I actually used to play curling with some friends on that olympics game they had on N64, granted it was usually when we were hammered. For the record curling would be way better if they played it like we did, you have to yell and taunt and try to break the peoples concentration on the other team, especially when he is using the broom.

SkiD_PL8 0 #13 February 18, 2006 For some reason I just picture the guy sliding down the ice with a broom and backing onto a conveyor belt that dumped him into a trap door lol. The bad part is the big ass stone thing would follow him into the trap door and I bet one of those would not feel good hitting your head lol. Greenie in training.

NWFlyer 2 #22 February 19, 2006 Curling is fun! It may not be "cool" per se, but it's damned fun to watch and to play (I have tried it once, on an "open house" night at the local club). And anyone who hasn't seen Men With Brooms is missing out on a very funny flick. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

(based on description) It's like luge, but backwards (in other words, head first down the ice).
