n. sporting activity in which marginally inebriated Canadians curl large lumps of granite down a frozen carpet of ice in order to obtain a hammer which, I believe, is the metric equivalent of a fifth of rye. Oddly enough a fifth, in curling, is a player too incompetent to play well. [Brooms] are used to clear debris off the ice and [roller blades] can be worn for decreased traction but arent compulsory.
Originally the game was played on [Scotlands] lakes by English soldiers with frozen lumps of haggis.
