Over the Weekend: Curling, Comedy and Moulin Rouge! re-enactors

By Jonathan McNamara

In the wake of the Suns' loss there was one event this weekend that sports fans could totally rock out to. I'm talking about curling, the sport in which boulders are slid across ice (Get it? Rock out . . . boulder . . . never mind). The Desert Ice Bonspiel brought the primarily Canadian sport to the Alltel Ice Den in Scottsdale this weekend.

Meanwhile in Chandler, Ewan McGregor and Nicole Kidman were replaced by avid Moulin Rouge! re-enactors. Several audience members got into the film via the fine art of lip-synching and theater makeup application as Chandler Cinemas presented Moulin Rouge! on Saturday night.

Norm McDonald of SNL fame made a guest appearance at Tempe Improv's Comedy Draft last night. On his joke agenda: the fact that if you're favorite drink is coke, Pepsi is probably your least favorite drink, not your second favorite drink.
