Puzzle Description:

The question is not whether it could be done...but should it be done? An Olympic curling stone converted to an iron.

Odd. Very clear image.

Wow...surprisingly, I know exactly what you're saying! Interesting "spin."

Norway could have used better curling stones in the final game. Congrats to Canada.

Now it makes sense. At first I was thinking, "what a very weird-looking iron."

But then all the clothes end up curled instead of flat...

LOL Joe!

Almost used the title "curling iron", but thought that was too descriptive. Thanks much everyone, for your comments.

I saw this sport as a kid, on a trip to Canada with my father. It was a very strange experience. Sports were never a part of my childhood (except in hated gym class), and so when we showed up at what looked like a skating rink and there were a bunch of teapots lined up on a bench...

Later on we saw them throwing a few, or however the term is. I thought the guys with the brooms were pretty amusing.

Great puzzle and great Games! Congratulations, Vancouver and all of Canada (I'll even forgive you for the hockey outcome!)
