2018 seems to be the sport of curling's big year.
First 80's television icon Mr. T acknowledges just how awesome the sport is, then J.J. Watt shows his support for the game with a few tweets of his own. Sunday, Watt posted an image of himself wearing a USA curling shirt on his Twitter account, presumably after watching the Mixed Doubles event.
Shortly after posting the image, Matt Hamilton -- a member of the US Olympic curling team and the man who looked like Super Mario and took the world by storm -- asked Watt if he had just gained a new fan.
Watt's response..."of course."
Looks like curling has yet another A-list fan! Although Watt seems to be fairly new to watching curling, he has had some experience with the sport in the past. Namely in a series of commercials a few years back in which he showed how valuable his raw power would be on the ice.
Hopefully we can expect to see Watt at the 2022 Winter Olympics...as long as he brings his own rocks.
