Hasn't died at all. Neighbourhoods age. A neighbourhood probably gets 10 peak years. Bridlewood was packed between 6:30 - 7:30 you had line ups at house as it backed up. The rest of the night was pretty busy too with people starting at about 5:30.
The only thing I'd say has changed is that it ends at 8. Though I noticed that as a difference between Saskatoon and Calgary when I moved here. So calgary might have always ended earlier.
