I vividly remember in the early years of ABC's Wide World of Sports, they traveled somewhere to a Curling event. Early 60s black 'n white, with Jim McKay doing the announcing. Just as the sadly missed Mr. McKay would intone each week, "bringing you the constant variety in sports". My memory of that part of his opening description might be off a word, but the fact they had a segment on curling certainly fit the word, "variety".
Oh yeah, curling is most assuredly a sport. ---Brian Powell
