<p>A team of elite Canadian curlers, including a 2014 Olympic champion, was thrown out of a world curling tournament Saturday for “unsportsmanlike” behaviour after a drunken, belligerent and disruptive display, organizers said.</p><p>“I guess they were here to party,” said Wade Thurber, manager of the Red Deer Curling Centre, host of the Alberta bonspiel. “And then they went out to curl and it went sideways.”</p><p>There was boorish behaviour, such as swearing and disturbing other teams on the ice during two games of the Red Deer Curling Classic, a World Curling Tour event. Then there were the smashed brooms by Ryan Fry, who won a gold medal for Canada at the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi, Russia.</p><p>“It was temper. Smashed them. He hit one on the ice and broke the head off, and one on the scoreboard, and one over his knee,” Thurber said.</p><p>The curlers have since apologized and offered to pay for a hole in the locker room wall. </p><p>The team won their first game of the tournament on Friday. On Saturday, they arrived at the rink and were drinking in the rink’s bar prior to the their first of two Saturday games. Thurber said they were drinking beer and liquor shots.</p><p>“They were cut off at the bar, eventually,” he said.</p><div class="embed-twitter"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="550" data-dnt="true"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">Jamie Koe rink kicked out of <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/RedDeer?src=hash&ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">#RedDeer</a> Curling Classic <a href="https://t.co/90pMvxUeFC">https://t.co/90pMvxUeFC</a></p>— Red Deer Advocate (@RedDeerAdvocate) <a href="https://twitter.com/RedDeerAdvocate/status/1064338989958590465?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">November 19, 2018</a></blockquote><script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></div><p>A photo of the team in the bar before the game shows them two-fisting bottles of Corona at the table.</p><p>By the time of the team’s second game that day, their skipper, Jamie Koe, 41, of Yellowknife, who is a veteran of 10 Canadian curling championships, wasn’t able to take to the ice. He was “too drunk to curl,” Thurber said. The other three — Fry, 40, of Sault Ste. Marie, Chris Schille, 35, of Regina, and DJ Kidby, 31, of Regina — pressed ahead for back-to-back losses.</p><p>“There were so many complaints and demands to do something about the situation that we decided to remove the team from the spiel, which we did on the Saturday, after the game,” Thurber said.</p><p>“That team left the rink and since, though, they have contacted us and are very apologetic and offered to pay for damages.

It wasn’t like four regular club curlers that just decided to get together to curl.
