I don't think I could sing the full anthem in either language but I know the bilingual version they sing at hockey games by heart.

loooooooooooooooooooooooooooolI thought I was just retarded for this. I used to be able to do both, growing up learning both languages, but I definitely can't do either now, lol. The mixed one is easy tho!

I love Curling, I'm addicted to that thing, watched it all last Olympics and looking forward to it in 2010.

Curling, imho, is boring to watch, but it is super fun to play, for whatever reason.

I grew up curling and still love to watch it at a high level....The women's worlds were last week and there was some fantastic play.Men's worlds gets under way today, i believe.

The public-address announcer tells us to get out our 50-50 tickets and reveals that the winner's share of the pool is $30,000.Thirty grand!

Who gets the other 50%?

Charity. Often service organization like Lions Club. Basically, whoever runs it.

We have better bowling alleys.

I'm not sure what's worse...the singers who completely butcher the Star Spangled Banner when they sing it, or Chicago fans who cheer through the entire national anthem instead of keeping their mouths shut and paying respect to the flag.

People that do that anywhere during any anthem annoy me.And, yes, both the Pro Club and the bowling alleys in Canada are nice.
