The Simpsons has once again predicted the future, this time with the results of the Winter Olympics Curling.

In a 2010 episode titled 'Boy meets Curl',  Homer and Marge take up curling, and they, along with Principal Skinner and his mom, lead the US Team to a gold medal during that year's games in Vancouver.
