A story about tonight's game. I rarely get to see a live Flames game. I live out of town and I have four kids so I can't afford to go more than once or twice per year. My son is an absolute Flames nut so I bought Flames tickets in PL7 for all the kids (my son had been to a Flames game last year but it was the first for my three daughters) during the Black Friday sale ($20/ seat). I like to make a day of it say I pull all of he kids out of school at noon to hit some stores, supper and then the Flames game. When we get to the game (about 5:45) they had some stuff for the kids at the door (thundersticks and some little Flames trinkets). As we start the climb to the sky we also acquire Flames toques and $5 gift cards for all of the kids free of charge. Once we reach our seats in the sky (PL-7) we were all joking about how high it was for a couple of minutes and a nice lady from the Flames comes up to us with a stack of tickets and asks if we would like to be relocated to Section 104 in the lower bowl ($170+ face value on the tickets)!

Although it wasn't the best game I have seen the team play I have to comment on what a classy organization the Flames are. It was a great night and sitting with my offspring at the game brought back memories of my dear old deceased Dad and I sitting front row in the Corral when I was a kid.
