Ive also been to many other arenas...forgetting to mention Montreal my first go around. A Toronto/Habs or Toronto/Bruins game is just as loud as a Flames/Oiler or Flames/Canucks game. The Wild have put every crowd to sleep in the past...maybe not this year though.
Quite frankly Calgary aint #1 in crowd support. Its ok...but not the best.
Oh and while Im on this...get rid of the moron who announces goals and players...he sounds like a poor mans version of Michael Buffer at a boxing match. Hes embarrassing.

BTW based on where my ex seasons tiks were at the Dome....3rd row by the Visitors penalty box...I might have been what you consider a "suit". No jealousy here.
I'm not arguing with the fact that Calgary isn't #1, but Toronto? Please. The seats in the lower bowl are always half empty because of the luxury suites underneath. Its brutal when your sold out arena constantly has an empty lower bowl.
