1992 Ontario Tankard

The 1992 Ontario Tankard, (known as the Labatt's Blue Light Tankard for sponsorship reasons) the southern Ontario men's provincial curling championship was held February 4–9 at the Nepean Sportsplex in Nepean, Ontario. The winning rink of Russ Howard, Glenn Howard, Wayne Middaugh and Peter Corner from the Penetanguishene Curling Club would go on to represent Ontario at the 1992 Labatt Brier, Canada's national men's curling championship in Regina, Saskatchewan.

In the final, 1987 World Champion Russ Howard beat Tankard rookie Mike Harris from Scarborough's Tam Heather club, 6–4. Howard scored a deuce in the first, thanks to a mistake on Harris' last rock. Harris couldn't muster a deuce or a steal of his own for the rest of the game, thanks to the strong takeout play by the Howard team. Howard considered a "tremendous draw" in the third to be the turning point in the game, and another deuce in the fifth pretty much put the game away for Howard. Howard won the game when he ran Team Harris out of rocks with a takeout on his final shot. He would end up curling 86 per cent in what was his sixth provincial championship. Howard went into the finals having amassed more than $100,000 on tour that season, and had a record of 51–4 following the tournament.

Harris, who was the youngest skip in the tournament at the age of 24, advanced to the final after beating Mike Altenhof of Chatham 9–6 in the semifinal. The Harris team had a poor record earlier in the season, and nearly did not want to even play in the provincial playdowns.
