No, the reason people are wearing Calgary clothes including Flames gear in africa is from Salvation Army donations. I was in Ghana three years ago, and I noticed someone wearing a Calgary Cannons hat and an early 80's era flames shirt, all from nice people from Calgary. One of the childs showed me a name on the tag inside the shirt, saying "go flames go" underneath the name, which nearly brought a tear to me. It proved to me that cloth donations don't go to waste.
