The 2013 Scotties Tournament of Hearts have proven yet again that curlers are some of the greatest sportsmen and women in professional sports.
In this particular instance, the women at the Scotties take to the newest viral web craze by doing the Harlem Shake. A viral video concept that usually begins with a person wearing a helmet, in this case it's the Scotties mascot dancing with others around him not paying attention. When the beat drops on the song, a quick edit reveals all the curlers, coaches and cleaners dancing, wearing costumes and going crazy.
Although the video is pretty silly, it symbolizes more than people just participating in an internet meme. It shows that these athletes exude sportsmanship. Imagine the Montreal Canadians and the Boston Bruins doing this, I can't. Curlers are very much a community of people who love their sport and share that with one another. We love this video and can't wait to see more like it!
Great job to everyone involved, we think you're awesome!
