Everyone I know is a Leafs / Habs fans (I work for a government org though). I dont know any other Flames fans. Some friends bandwagoned back in 2004 and that was it. Id say there's more people that dont give a crap about hockey and follow the NFL then there is hockey fans that follow the Oil or Flames at this point in AB.
Even when I was a kid (being an ethnic person) people I knew followed soccer and basketball. I didn't get into hockey until a bud sat down over beers and explained it all to me around 94. I liked the physicality.
