Workers at LaGuardia Airport in New York are going for the gold and putting their own spin on the Winter Olympics.

Airport staff have come up with their versions of the Olympic events.

Instead of heavy stones and brushes, they’re using luggage and a floor squeegee in the airport “curling” event.

Skiing is done on escalators.

For figure skating, the moving walkway was a stand-in for the ice.

They shared their gold-medal-worthy competition on Instagram.
