There are few things more “classic” Edmonton than that.

“We have a mall like everyone else, but it’s the biggest!”
“We have a river like every city built on a river, but it’s a national park!”
“We lost in the playoffs like 15 other teams, but to the cup winners!… TWICE!”

The desperation in making a boring northern prairie town that nobody likes sound any better than what it is, is something I hope never changes about Edmonton. Just perfect.
