Because the Brits ( Or really the Scots ) had the chance of a gold medal I stayed up to watch. The good thing was that you got to see the whole game where you can start to pick up on some of tactics which I found fascinating. I got the impression that with curling it is a lot easier to take somebody out that to accurately place the stone i.e. Shooting is a lot easier than pointing. Also seeing people deliberatly not win an end because they would at best pick up one point, but give the opposition the last throw in the next end was interesting as was the tactic of guarding stones and getting stones in the circles but spread as far as possible to avoid double takeouts. I guess if I could play boule at a higher standard i.e Large percentage of takeouts then the tactics would become more interesting too.
Amazing what a few changes in Physical ( stones on ice versus boule ) and changes in rules ( alternate throwing ). Could make to something that is otherwise quite similar.
