Man, that was a long time ago.

Ha, yeah. Someone
was selling DVD's
of that game on this board, and the 2&7 coverage afterwards. Good luck doing that now. That was summer 2003. We'd met up once prior to at Peanuts, I want to say Fall 2002, and then March 2004, after the Flames beat Phoenix to make the playoffs, we had a meet up in Duttons too.
I joined March 2002, after an internet search for something else Flames related. I had gone previously in years prior to the Flames official board, which was terrible, and didn't think of alternatives to that. If I did see the pre Oct 2001 board, I likely dismissed it as being as poor as the official Flames one at the time.
Weekend I joined was just before the Flames played the Oilers in Edmonton, and myself and some friends were headed up for that; after that trip, BringBackShantz and Hulkrogan detailed the Northlands idiots kicking out a large section of the Flames fans that game (I was sitting below where that was happening). Par for the course up there in that crap hole, with beers "accidently" spilled, things thrown at you etc...but you do one thing back and you're tossed.
Lot of good times here, and a lot of time spent here, for better or worse. Shame the postings around the 2004 run has been lost to the Internet black hole.
Finally, a pop in from the long standing most frequent poster, Cowperson, would round this thread off nicely.
