Team Martin: Up Against The Wall


In the old days when someone told you your picture was on a wall, it used to mean you were wanted, as in your pic on the post office wall.
But Kevin Martin’s team has been immortalized on the walls of the Avonair Curling Club in murals commissioned by the city of Edmonton. It’s a very nice honour for the boys, and for Martin especially as this CTV story points out:
Martin said it was especially touching because he got his start at the curling club."I made ice here. My dad made ice here. My great grandfather made ice here," he said, "It's pretty cool."
You can see the murals by clicking here. And maybe I’m crazy, but in the one with the medal presentation, doesn’t Johnny Mo look a little like Pauly D?
