While the purpose of this thread is to bash Edmonton, what this Oilers fan did was pretty cool:

Quote:
Christopher Smith was at the Oilers/Predators game in Nashville with his fiancee and two kids from their church. During the first intermission he couldn’t help but notice the younger boy, Zeb, staring at a gold Predators jersey in the program. Smith had given Zeb an old jersey of his to wear to the game, but the young hockey fan didn’t have one of his own.
As it turns out, Smith wasn’t the only one who took notice of Zeb’s affection for the sweater. A few minutes later, two men dressed in Edmonton Oilers jerseys came up to Smith and handed him a child-size gold Predator’s jersey.
“He was sitting two rows behind us and he handed me the jersey and said, ‘every kid should have his first jersey,'” Smith said Friday.
“The look on his face was just priceless. You couldn’t really explain, it he was so excited.”
Smith said Zeb spent the entire second intermission comparing his jersey with Smith’s. And he talked about his new jersey the entire way home.
