Default Favorite Winter Olympic Events

I have a particular fondness for curling and mixed double luge.

Ice hockey is also interesting. Something about men with missing teeth.

I'm an all around fan of ice hockey but during the Olympics I usually watch curling. It really becomes an exciting sport after a few beers

Biathlon. Can't figure out why it's not more popular in the US, you get to shoot stuff.
