Great question. Even though I have not lived in Calgary for 14 years, in my heart I'm still a Calgarian. Doubt I will ever move back, but it will always be my hometown. Clear as day, I remember Ken Newans reporting that the Atlanta Flames were moving to Calgary, most thursdays a game on TV on 2&7, and listening to Peter Maher the rest of the time. Just like the Horse, the Flaming C was my childhood.
When I lived in Vancouver, I followed he Canucks closely, solely out of pure hate. Being an anti-fan in a rival town is a lot of fun.
Now in Colorado, and have no interest in following the local team.
That being said, I'd probably follow the team, but I don't think the same passion would be there. Not even sure if I'd still feel the same love if I lived in Seattle.
