Actually, I am surprised by the overall positive response to curling. Until you understand the strategy it is really only mildly interesting. Once you understand the game it is a perfect spectator sport from the point of questioning and debating the various shot options as the game progresses.
Then again, this forum has a lot of strategy gamers on it who are naturally "armchair skips".
The hockey ratings here were insane when you consider the large immigrant population from non-northern climates.
My parents have never been interested in sports their entire lives. Sunday, they watched their first complete hockey game. Dad is 87 and Mom is 79. How cool is that?
