Ok, Not to nit pick, but ths is for those who attend the games and also have heard of the verizon 0.02 cents debacle. The Flames have an in game promotion (trivia) where they ask a question and give three choices and you can text the answer and possibly win a prize (obviously). They advertise each text costs .50 cents. I know they mean 50 cents but on the jumbotron it does say .50 cents, with the cents symbol following it. Not sure if anyone has seen this. But it is comical. so in reality, for those who do not know, they really should be charging half a cent per text.

We should alert KK about this shoddy math.

Not sure of any other instances.
