Honestly, I love these guys with their crazy outfits. I think it's wonderfully fun. So do a lot of other folks, and the colorful patterned outfits of the Norwegian men's curling team have become celebrities in their own right. See, for instance, a daily tracker of the different patterns!
So fugly it's fabulous.
So, inevitably, there will be haters. Apparently now the haters are squeaking complaints demanding to know if the pants are legal to wear under the terms of the IOC and the World Curling Federation. Neither organization has really responded, but the Norwegians did, and this made me laugh out loud. The team, in response to the kerfuffle about their pants, posted this photo:
Don't like our colorful trousers? Fine, we won't wear them.
Kudos, guys! That's world-class sass right there, especially the fellow at the far right.
The only way this could be better is if the undies had the same loud, colorful patterns as the actual competition outfits, but I don't think the guys had enough time to arrange custom undies. Hey! How about this for an idea: make a Norwegian Men's Curling Team CALENDAR?
PS: I found the pants in a form I would wear in warmer weather. Cute, no?
