Trivia

The line "It's not the size of the army, it's the fury of the onslaught" was originally used in another Paul Gross production - Asylum. See more »

Goofs

Factual errors: Throughout many of the games you will see that there are many rocks left in the house. The true way of counting score in curling is whoever has the closet rock to the button gets 1 point, then for every other rock that is closer gets another point until an opponent's rock is closer then any more in the house. During many of the games some houses were left with up to 5 rocks in the house with no opposing rocks. The scores should have been much higher in all the games, most notably in the final game.
