Calgary fans are more fickle and they should be...can't rely on the edmonton model of a decade ineptitude and luck to build a team and get a new stadium.

It's not the same here, and i'm proud of that. We aren't as willing to be fed pure bull$hit year after year and just sit there like a bunch of robots and be happy with it.

Things will improve if the front office sees it as a necessity.
They are moving people around now. Outside of games against Canadian teams and weekend, I'd wager they are moving people out of 3rd bowl to fill up first and second bowl seats 70% of the time. I have season tickets in the first row of the third bowl, and if i wanted to show up an hour before every, I could probably get a lower bowl upgrade any game on Sunday through Thursday. A flames rep is always there passing tickets out.
