I don't think that was a coincidence. Regardless, they do have a spot for their tent now. I can confirm that.

Ya, i've been "heavily" involved in the nightlife in this town basically since 95. I've planned, constructed and participated in multiple Stampede tents. This is nothing new too me. I was basically just saying that it will be interesting how they get around the Liquor & Gaming and City of Calgary bylaws.
They may have a spot but there is a ton to do to get approval.
It used to be if you were good "relation" with the city or L&G, you were fine, but the 2004 red mile changed the mindset of the city and a massive amount of restrictions were put in place and the "relations" were gone.
Penny Lane has a great team, so I'm sure they will get it done but again, I await to see how.
