Curling is very interesting to see in person, if only because the TV broadcast, while superior in some ways, completely leaves out some things, like the fact that after the bagpipe band marches in, a miniature Parade of Nations occurs where each competing team marches in. On TV you always see a single game, but in reality four games are taking place concurrently on adjacent sheets (except in certain situations, like the medal rounds). This makes it hard to concentrate on any single game.
