<p>Back in 2015, four-time world champion curler Randy Ferbey bemoaned the sober-minded ways of the sport’s modern era. In his day, he told the Ottawa Sun, you would “go curl your game then go sit and visit with people and have a bunch of beers and stay up till midnight.</p><p>“Teams don’t do that no more,” Ferbey said.</p><p>But Ferbey jumped the gun a bit, because there’s one team that has taken Ferbey’s wistful recollection to heart in perhaps an overenthusiastic manner. On Sunday afternoon, the curling foursome of Jamie Koe, Ryan Fry, Chris Schille, and DJ Kidby got kicked out of the Red Deer Curling Classic in Alberta, in part because they were “extremely drunk.”</p><p>“They went out to curl and they were extremely drunk and breaking brooms and swearing and just unacceptable behavior that nobody wants to watch or hear or listen to and it was just ‘enough was enough,’ ” facility manager Wade Thurber told CBC Sports.</p><div class="embed-twitter"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="550" data-dnt="true"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">From Wade Thurber, Manager of Red Deer Curling Centre<br><br>“They went out to curl and they were extremely drunk and breaking brooms and swearing and just unacceptable behaviour that nobody wants to watch or hear or listen to and it was just enough was enough”<a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/cbccurl?src=hash&ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">#cbccurl</a></p>— Devin Heroux (@Devin_Heroux) <a href="https://twitter.com/Devin_Heroux/status/1064332843520745472?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">November 19, 2018</a></blockquote><script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></div><p>“There was some damage in the locker room and other teams complaining about their stuff being kicked around in the locker room. So at the end of the day, it was like ‘OK, that’s enough of this gong show.’ The committee for the bonspiel collectively decided that we needed to remove them from the spiel for this year and what happens down the road, I’m not sure yet.”</p><p>(“Bonspiel” is curling lingo for “tournament.”)</p><p>According to a sign posted at the arena, Koe’s squad was disqualified – it had to forfeit its final match after just one end – and might not be allowed back. The team won its first match of the tournament on Friday before losing twice on Saturday, the Red Deer Advocate reported.</p><div class="embed-twitter"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="550" data-dnt="true"><p lang="en" dir="ltr"><a href="https://twitter.com/TeamBradJacobs?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@TeamBradJacobs</a> Guess you didn’t hear of Fry’s disgusting performance on the ice at the Red Deer Curling Classic while he was sparing for Jamie Koe.

My actions were truly disrespectful and embarrassing – the committee was right to disqualify us from play.”</p><p>The incident was discussed a this World Curling Tour live stream of the event: “Yesterday, they got here about 11 o’clock,” the commentator said. “They were sitting over there drinking, about 30, 40 empty bottles of beer and they were doing shots. They went out there completely drunk and played, kicking rocks, throwing brooms, they got disqualified. Other teams were saying, ‘We do not want to even play here anymore if they’re allowed, so they said, ‘Team Koe, disqualified,’ and they’re never allowed to play here again.”</p><p>Said Fry, in his statement: “I allowed myself to lose control and I offended people with my actions. I wish nothing more than to apologize to everyone individually.”</p><div class="pmYTPlayerContainer video-container" id="KMdrWSFasmk"><div id="pn_video_885873"></div></div><script type="text/javascript">( function() { pnLoadVideo( "videos", "KMdrWSFasmk", "pn_video_885873", "", "", {"controls":1,"autoplay":0,"is_mobile":""} ); } )();</script> </div>
