Arm yourself with the tools you need to survive the
curling season. The ideal gift for curlers of all levels
and all ages! The perfect bonspiel prize! Get it for
your teammates, get it for your skip! Don't let your
friends or family face the ice without it! It all
started one cold, dark, wintry night in the northern
reaches of Canada. Indoors on a sheet of ice 146 feet
long and 14 feet wide were 16 granite rocks and two
teams of four players each. The sport of the great white
north ... CURLING ... David and Frank met on the curling
ice in Canada. Yup, that was the birthplace of 101
Excuses. Here’s how it started. Curling is a sport that
requires extraordinary teamwork and skill in order to be
played well. Being the ultimate team sport, it’s also a
very social game. One of the first things you notice
when you take up curling is that no matter what happens
on the ice, it’s not your fault. It could be the broom's
fault, the rock, the ice, whatever, but "excuses" are
flying around all over the place. Suddenly it came to
them. Someone needed to assemble these excuses in order
to arm curlers, both new and experienced, with the tools
they need to survive the curling season. David and Frank
got to work. Of course, the two of them had plenty of
excuses as to why they couldn't do the book, but in the
end they realized it was their mission. The rest, my
friends, is history.
