Surely that's visits to the Dome, the great majority of which are the same people visiting many times (ie Flames season ticket holders).
NHL hockey is expensive. Really expensive. Sometimes corporate tickets find their way into the hands of lower-level employees, but most of the people who attend Flames games are well-heeled. And with the cost of attending live music skyrocketing in recent years, it's increasingly confined to the affluent as well.
Don't kid yourself that entertainment at the Saddledome is anything but a rare treat for average Calgarians.
