In which Olympic sport played on ice would you use a 'puck'?
Show answer
Ice Hockey
The first hockey pucks were actually made of wood and were square-shaped before the standard vulcanized rubber disk was adopted in the late 1800s. To prevent the rubber from bouncing too much during play, officials keep the pucks frozen in a cooler right up until they are dropped on the ice.
