It’s the modern version of Three Cheers and Fox and Firkin. Throw in a little Coconut Joe’s and Bandito’s.

Two 11 Avenue pubs are attempting to gift the Calgary Flames with special luck these playoffs by bringing back Electric Avenue, the notorious party zone from the Flames’ only Stanley Cup winning year in 1989.

Last Best Brewing and Broken City are partnering in the promotion, as well as Wild Rose Brewery, who named their Electric Avenue lager after the location.

According to James Hill, a senior manager with Last Best, fans were forgetting the original, and better, destination for playoff memories.

“We were confused why everyone goes to 17th Avenue, when the Flames first won the Cup on Electric Avenue,” said Hill.
