It’s hard to believe that with all the Olympic excitement going on that you might’ve missed this gem. During Sunday’s curling action, a true international superhero was born.
It was when Canada was involved in their titanic struggle versus the curling giants from Japan. As Rachel Homan was sweeping her little heart out to bring home the gold to Canada, her beloved husband was cheering her on in the most Canadian way possible: drinking beer. Even better? We get to see Shawn Germain’s awesomeness documents, courtesy of Twitter. Because here’s the best part: the event may have been at 9am, but our hero was double-fisting beers throughout her match…probably to settle his nerves.
Witnesses said that he went through “three or four” by the time the match was complete. It’s not known how many beers Germain downed during the tight match between the USA and Canada the next day. In response to the attention his drinking garnered, Germain tweeted out, “You can judge all you want. The stress level is high. I’m not a drunk. I’m just Canadian.” Words of wisdom…that have since been deleted.
