When I was living in France and I told people I was from Calgary, it was kind of hit or miss whether or not people had heard of it.
These are all responses I actually did receive:
Me: "I'm from Calgary"
Random #1: "Oh yeah, 1988 Olympics!"
Me: "I'm from Calgary"
Random #2: "Oh yeah, the Calgary Stampede!"
Me: "I'm from Calgary"
Random #3: "I SAW COOL RUNNINGS ONCE!"
Me: "I'm from Calgary"
Random #4: "WTF"
Me: "I'm from Calgary"
Random #5: "You dirty Quebecois"
