There was an article in either the Globe & Mail, National Post or Herald the other day about this, saying Cowboys is one of those rare bars that has become legendary outside its local area . . . . the writer citing Sports Illustrated referencing it one time as an advantage to the Flames as one example.
Apparently, the author would pop up around North America, say he was from Calgary and people would ask him if he'd been to "Cowboys."
If someone has the link to that story it would fit nicely in this thread.
I was invited to a lot of Stampede parties there but never went.
In fact, never set foot in the place.
