About Aanders Brorson:
Curls out of: Duluth Curling Club
Curling start: "When I was 12 years old I told my dad that I didn't want to play hockey anymore. Before the hockey season was done he suggested to me that I come over to the curling club and throw a few rocks with him. That year I finished out the hockey season and curling season. The next year it was all curling and only recreational hockey."
Curling family: His dad and sister also curl.
Other sports: Baseball
Something unique: "I was born in Canada (but I'm a U.S. citizen); I am double-jointed; and I have hitchhiker thumbs!"
Travel: "I have lived in one province, five states and eight cities. I have probably visited or driven through five provinces and 15 states. I am happy living in Duluth for now and hope my dad stops changing jobs!"
