Sadly many lacrosse and hockey parents on my kid’s teams in Calgary cheer for the oilers. It’s an epidemic of disgustingness. Like the Last of Us, but instead of people being overtaken by ugly fungus and making weird sounds, they are overtaken by blue and orange attire and can’t stop saying ‘Mcdavid’.

They have the highest per capita “bring the cup back to Canada” fans I’ve ever seen. Since they have no nhl team, they tend to cheer for the closest Canadian teams, especially western Canadian teams since they tend to dislike Winnipeg. But there’s not really very many actual Oiler fans. At least not diehards. If it were the flames in the playoffs, they’d be pulling for us.
