I grew up in the 80s in Calgary and that was not my experience at all. The only student I saw wear an Oilers jersey was a girl - any boys would have been harassed and bullied into taking it off. A couple teachers did wear Oilers jerseys, and there was nothing we could do about that. But 90+ per cent of the students and staff were Flames fans. Maybe it was different in other parts of the city. Where did you go to school?
