Blue Jackets look forward to Calgary Games

Quote:
CALGARY—During their three-game road swing last month, the Columbus Blue Jackets players could not stop gushing about the impressive architecture, diverse shopping opportunities, friendly people, and fascinating history they discovered in the city of Calgary. "I've really never seen anything quite like it," second-year player Gilbert Brule said while snapping photographs of the Sunridge Mall's TCBY, Spencer Gifts, and Radio Shack. "I feel like it would take me a lot longer to run out of things to say or do here than in Columbus." The Blue Jackets also discussed their dread of an upcoming two-week homestand while trying on hats at TJ Maxx, agreeing they should enjoy Calgary's urban, cosmopolitan pleasures while they could.

I don't care if this ends up being a FATA. Too funny.

Sunridge Mall? Really? If that place is picture-worthy, they might try and claim refugee status at West Ed.

Well, when the Onion is getting digs in on your city, you know you've hit the map for the wrong reasons, I suppose.

See, this is what happens when we don't have a good looking pedestrian bridge.

The Onion made a movie as well. Saw it on the Rogers Video shelves last time I was in there. Anyone seen it? Worth renting?

LOL. No offense but our culture, nightlife, restaurants and movie scenes have nothing on similar sized or bigger cities.

Own it, Love it. As far as random pop-culture making fun of everything movies this one is actually good! I laughed so hard I cried for like 1/2 the movie.

Sorry dude, I meant to say music scene. Live music, the variety of music they play in clubs and lounges and the quality of live shows that come to a city. When thinking of movie scenes, the only thing I can think of is those dirty peep shows places on St. Catherines. Shutter/.
