I have another one!

A friend and I made the trek north for the Western Final in '01. After the game, a one-sided Stampeder victory, a drunk Edmontonian took exception to my friend's #20 Doug Flutie jersey.

"Hey, idiot, when are you going to get a new jersey? Flutie's been gone a long time," the drunk grumbled.

My friend and I were at a loss for words, but a Calgary fan, a stranger, behind us came to our rescue: "He'll get a new jersey when you idiots rename Wayne Gretzky Drive."

The drunk opened his mouth to retort, then turned on his heel and disappeared into the frigid November night.
