Whimsical Texas Man Pays Tribute to Olympic Curling With Roomba and Swiffer
A Texas man staged a surprisingly accurate recreation of curling with cleaning tools while watching the Winter Olympic games from home in Wichita Falls on February 5. In this video, Charles McBride is seen parodying the winter sport by furiously scrubbing his floor with a Swiffer broom as his Roomba vacuum creeps along. "When you're stuck at home watching the Winter Olympics," McBride jokingly wrote in his Facebook caption. (Footage by Charles McBride/Storyful via Getty Images UGC)
