This Family Just Invented At-Home Olympic Curling, and It Involves a Swiffer and a Roomba

Of all the sports in the Winter Olympics, curling is definitely the most confusing. Other than many years of experience sweeping a back porch or gently nudging something while doing a deep lunge, what skill sets are necessary to succeed as an Olympic-level curler? One family decided to find out...and the results are absolutely hilarious.

Kentucky mom Debbie Payne Connor posted a video of her family really getting into the Olympic spirit with an extremely creative tribute to curling. In their version, one competitor gently releases a Roomba vacuum while a teammate furiously Swiffers in front of the vacuum's path.

After racking up more than 30 million views, Connor posted a note: “We are beyond happy that this has been accepted in a positive way. Our hearts are full and so thrilled that everyone took a little 'break’ and just smiled and had a good laugh! Happiness is the best! Thank you very much!!”

No, thank you, Debbie. Thank you.
