Event Information

The 1981 Labatt Brier in Halifax was a real nail biter. There were two tie-breakers one of which went into an extra end. A semi-final that went to an extra end and a dramatic last shot, come from behind win for Manitoba's Kerry Burtnyk. He scored three in the final end to edge out Northern Ontario and give Manitoba its 21st Brier victory. The 22-year-old Burtnyk became the Brier's youngest winning skip, and his team of Mark Olson, 23, Jim Spencer, 22 and Ron Kammerlock, 21 became the youngest to capture a Brier with an average age of 22.
