Considering that pic is a year old, I’d be super impressed.

The Blasty jersey looks great but don't wear it to a playoff game!

It's really not that hard. The Flames away is not red. Don't wear it. Blasty, as mentioned, is not red. Don't wear it. If you only have a Blasty and a road white, wear a red shirt or a red t-shirt.
Just wear red.

I have a Tkachuk Blasty I've been wearing to all games so far because I wouldn't have the audacity to wear it to a playoff game.
Actual question, if there ever was a Battle of Alberta in the playoffs, the no-goods fanbase would flood the Dome with sweatpants and Oil jerseys. I remember Vegas did something a few years ago to try and limit fans of the opposing team snatching up tickets, could Calgary do anything similar and if so, what?

Beat them up in the parking lot and steal their tickets? That’s the only sensible solution.

I was always under the impression it was a sea of red, however typed as C of red for the pun on the flaming C. If one was to attend a Flames playoff game, you should see a 'sea of red' as if you looked out to an ocean and all you could see was the colour red. Not a bunch of people forming the letter C in red jerseys.

If you go to a Flames game and don't wear red, you're an a-hole

Nothing wrong with wearing a Blasty jersey to a game in the regular season. Playoffs? Sure.

broke the first rule

But my Nana bought me one of the sweet new away jerseys. Sure, it's white but the C is Red. That means it's good to wear as part of the C of Red during the playoffs

A skill testing question?

Yeah, bro.
Wear what you want. I've worn the away jersey to a playoff game before.
If you are there, cheer extra loud for me!

But seriously, if one guy wants to wear his white jersey to the game, it's not a big deal.
The C of Red always has a tiny bit of white in it, just like a real fire.

Ah, the playoff red threads that got me one of my infractions many moons ago. This thread makes me want to buy an away jersey just to wear in the playoffs.

The point is that the overwhelming red in the stands intimidates visitors. It unifies the crowd and gets them into the game more. You wouldn't put a Stampeders flag on your car during the NHL playoffs. Nothing wrong with a Stampeders flag, but that's not the time and place for it. So don't wear anything but red to the Dome. It's a Flames playoff tradition.

No.
But seriously, if one guy wants to wear his white jersey to the game, it is a big deal because it is wrong.
There is a time and place to be a rebel. In the Dome, during the playoffs, is not that time or place.
