I saw two pretentious jerks in line for popcorn, they were both buff muscle heads, adn one was wearing a red shirt, while the other was wearing a white wife beater (he looked at his muscles three times, while in line), I overheard him saying to his buddy "I hope someone has the balls to tell me to wear red" What a rube!

Probably because they don't care. People are happy just to have tickets to a game...sometimes you get them last minute and can't get changed. Other times you just don't own anything red and you can't justify spending $20-$30 on a shirt you'll wear once to a play off game.
If 95%-99% of people are wearing red and the whole place is going crazy...I can live with 5% not wearing red

Probably not, but that answer seems like it would make you happy.

Like I said, Im not a "wear red or die" fan, Im just curious. You make a couple key points... I guess Im more curious about people that purposely buck the trend...

Here's a question I'd like to pose.
Who is the bigger offender...the guy who wears a red Flames jersey but barely knows anything about the team and just wants to party at the red mile, or the guy who wears his white jersey and watches every game and follows the team religously?

White jersey guy... if he's such a big fan he should own both colors. When the team is on the road he can wear his white one to the bar, when he goes to games, he sports the red one.
And if he's one of those "my lucky white jersey" types, he can wear it under the red one.

The guy in the white jersey, because if he's such a big Flames fan then how the hell does he not know to wear red to the dome?Is he living under a rock?

Maybe he didn't have his red jersey available for some reason (laundry accident)...or didn't have a red shirt. But he still wanted to support the team and wear something related to the Flames.
Anyways, I just don't think its that big of a deal. Most people will still wear red. The sea of red is alive and kicking.
I actually hope to see a few more white jerseys in the crowd next game just to send you guys off the deep end. You would think that these non-red people directly affect team morale or something.
Good night gents.

Yes, flames players have pointed out the fact that they have noticed white spots in the corwd before, and last year Regehr joked about how they must have missed the memo. So you have all the fans mocking you,a nd Flames players mocking you, if you're one of these people, just freakin wear red damnit!!!

I saw Ralph Klein walk in the doors. No seemed to notice him. I yelled out where's your red jersey? He says he left it at home.

Has everyone been listening to the mockery of the guy in the Aquaman t-shirt behind the penalty box last night? Here's hoping people get a clue (or buy one with their Ralph bucks if any are still lying around...) and wear RED for Kipper's sake! Sheesh!

Nation,
Not red enough - leave the white jerseys at home! You were responsible for the 3-0 lead, as the Flames were distracted by blobs of white in the C of Red.

The white wasn't as bad as the beige and blue I saw some people wearing.
Get a clue, be part of something bigger than yourself! Conform in a non conformist way, or non conform in a conformist way. What ever you need to tell yourself. JUST WEAR RED!!!
