Fun with Curling

If you're like most Americans, you probably turned on the Olympics at some point during their run, and came across a sport involving two individuals vigorously sweeping the path of a kettle-shaped sphere. You also soon learned that this inane act was known as curling, but could not for the life of you figure out the significance of the name, nor any rhyme or reason to the actions. You are not alone.

But now the Olympics are over and none of that is important (read: curling was never important). What is important is how Karl Stefanovic and Lisa Wilkinson of Aussie's Today Show used the Nintendo Wii to take curling to a whole new level of unintentional hilarity. Enjoy.
