Default Calgary Puck Online Scavenger Hunt

Here's my idea:

A description of a "landmark" within the city boundries will be given and members will try to guess as to what and where this "landmark" is. If they get the answer correct, you get to come up with the next "landmark".

Here's the first one:

I now stand tall and alone and quit "smoking" a number of years ago. The Flames and I were once rumored to be close.

Sue Higgens is short I believe.

You're on the right track.

Isn't this online orienteering, rather than a scavenger hunt?

I would have gone with the Calgary Tower, but they still light it up from time to time.

Go ahead Barnes, come up with another. I would but I can't hang on here too much to wait for responses.
