Scotty Loves Olympic Curling

The 2014 Winter Olympics just wrapped up in Sochi Russia.  So did Scotty McCreery watch the games, and which sport caught his attention.  He spoke with Country Countdown USA’s Lon Helton: “I knew a few of the figure skaters, Ashley Wagner and Gracie Gold.  We did a show, like a figure skating thing and they sang along on some of my songs, and I’ve never done anything like it in my life, it was more of a showcase with past Olympians, there were tons of famous skaters.  You get an appreciation for what they do when you see it up close.  It was fun watching that.  Another thing that I like watching that I’m still trying to get everybody on board with me is curling. I’m tellin’ ya, that sport is intense.  As much as it’s like them gliding a little rock down the ice to a dart-board kind of thing, when they yell ‘Brush! Brush!’ You’re screamin’ at the TV.  My steel player is Canadian, and he says ‘We love our curlin’ up there too.'”
