It would be far too easy to start this story by saying that "we pity the fool who doesn't follow Mr. T on Twitter during the Winter Olympics," but honestly...there's just no other way to put it, because it's true.

You probably know that Lawrence Tureaud, or as he's more commonly known -- Mr. T -- is an 80s television and film icon, but did you know that he's a fan of curling? Unless you've been following him on Twitter recently, the answer to that question is likely no.

The 2018 Winter Olympics officially begun a few days ago in PyeongChan, and Mr. T has been tweeting in excitement about it pretty much from the jump. It all started with his tweet about the opening ceremonies.

 

 

Then Mr. T surprised everyone by professing his newfound love for the game of curling. That's right, Mr. T is now an a passionate curling fan. 

 

 

Makes sense. The man is a rock-star after all. After his expressing his thoughts on curling, Mr. T did a great job of underlining the true meaning of the Olympic games...the spirit of competition.  

 

 



To close things out, Mr. T kept it real, pointing out a perspective that a lot of people watching at home likely agree with.

 

 

 

Did Mr. T just become our favourite Twitter follow? Yup! Oh, and Mr.T, if you're looking to stay in shape AND curl at the same time...we've got the answer for you!
