"For the first time, a Bavarian curling match was held as part of the club's series of dialogue formats. 48 people were drawn by lot from over 300 applications to compete in different teams whose names were derived from FCB players. President Herbert Hainer opened the tournament and was on hand to answer questions about the club, while the teams were joined by Karin Danner, former long-time manager of FC Bayern Women, and honorary committee member Marcus Preißinger."
"Hainer ordered a Paulaner beer to get him in the mood and told the audience that he had spent a lot of time curling on frozen lakes in his childhood and youth. After an introduction by Jasmin Gaßner, head of the membership department, he first addressed the members with a joke about the weather: "We imagined today being a little different - until a few days ago it was wintry white - but let's be positive about it: at least we won't freeze as much!""
