Default Lethbridge Flames Fans

I did search and found two old threads, one in 2005 and another from 2007; so I decided not to bump.

Anyway, I will be in Lethbridge for the Flames opening game on Sat Oct 8.

Where is a good place to watch the game?

Any other CPers in town want to come out?

Thanks. Don't really care on location, I think I am staying somewhere in the south, but willing to go where ever.

The Shark Club. Although, if you want to focus on the game and not the waitresses revealing outfits then you should go somewhere else. Average Joe's, which is downtown, once won SportNet's best Sports Bar in Canada competition... that was at it's old location, and I'm not overly fond of the new location.

I would consider joining you, but I may have family obligations. We'll have to see what happens.

People are still talking about Aeneas's last night out in L.A., about 25 years ago.

Actually, when I went down there he was very cordial.

Good memory, I think I had almost forgotten that night. That will not be repeated.

Average joes is a great place to watch, obviously Buff hasn't been there lately and seen the new skirts they are sporting.

Would love to be there, as I'm usually a regular fixture but I'll be attending the home opener

I live in lethbridge too, going to school at the university. If you're on the Westside, a good bar to go to is Mojo's. While the service is average, theres tons of TV's and the foods good. As well, if you go with some buds be sure to get a beer tower, they make a bad Flames game turn into a great night (trust me, i know)

Shh.

Don't ruin flameswin obsession with me.

Although even hearing facts likely won't change his opinion.

i am partial to Joes, although I do agree with Buff that the old location was better for its smaller, more pub like atmosphere.

I find Shark Club to be a bit overrated in the "quality" of the staff and horrible in terms of actually quality.

With Lethbridge I would say that the best case for you is to go to a place close to where you are staying as for the most part their are decent pubs/places to watch the game everywhere. I still say Joes is the best but places like Pops, Mojos, Bo Diddleys etc. aren't bad either.

I have no idea what my schedule is around that time but if I am around I would certainly be up for watching the game and as Locke said am very cordial in person.

Thanks Moon, would be great to meet up. I really should look up where we are staying.

Also not worried about your "rep"; not that I trust Locke, I hate that guy. I rarely go with the crowd on CP: I proudly wear my black horsehead jersey, I like Ott and Tootoo, have never slept with Fotze's mom, listen to Nickelback (well only "The State"), and I think Bouwmeester does a good job.

After all that maybe I should just watch at a relative's house.

Heading to Average Joes in Lethbridge tonight. Coming from Coaldale in the afternoon, so may be a little late. Hopefully the Habs have a long ceremony.

Red Regehr jersey, tall, glasses, stupid looking.

Hoping (from PM's) that Moon and return to the red can make it. Anyone else would be great too.
