I think the history of curling dates back to the 1500's is what makes the sport an Olympic event but who can forget the song.

O curlers, come, we're brithers a',
C ome join the curling game;
O ur eyes are keen, our arms are true,
O ur courage is aflame;
I n winter air, and sport so rare,
T he stones our weapons be,
W e'll make the fight with honest might,
T o gain the victory:
A man who is a curling man,
N o better man than he.
