Kurt Browning's Stars on Ice farewell tour is stopping in Saskatoon Thursday, 41 years after he placed third in a novice event here.
And that’s why he’s stopping now, rather than hanging on to 60. He feels no need to hit a numeric milestone with Stars on Ice, so he’s saying farewell to the fans, spinning one final time for their amusement and edification.
“It’s a photo album of old programs,” he said, and there’s also that duet with longtime friend and competitor Elvis Stojko, another neat touch. “It helped,” he added, “that I was winning. It breeds confidence, and makes you want to keep going. I just never, in my wildest dreams, thought I’d be one month from 57 …”
“What’s been hard is injuries along the way, where you have a run where you’re not skating as well as you’d like to. That’s an awful feeling. I hate that. You do it for the audience, and you feel like you’ve let people down.”
