Flames fans in Toronto

[Har-Calgary]

I'm in Liberty Village and another buddy of mine from Calgary moved to LV last year. We'll both be there Dec 6th and were both there last year for that dreadful 4-0 loss. We sometimes hit up LOCAL in LV to watch the late Flames games on the weekends, I'll post it on here next time we do.

Try years. Years and years and years. It’s still in “famous career goals” highlight packages. I was there with my dad. Went to last season’s 4-0 nightmare as a birthday present, as it was 2 days after my birthday. The ACC just destroys the Flames.

Here is a guy selling two seats for that game on Kijiji for $110.00

Buffalo is where I usually go. Going to the game in March, sitting 6th row behind the Flames bench, for less than $100/seat. Can't wait!

The early season California games were a nightmare! A glorious glorious nightmare.

Funny this thread pops up today. I just got off the plane from the GTA. I'm a relatively frequent visitor so if there is a movement to red-up a whole section in the ACC, lmk. I'm likely in.

I live in Toronto and truth be told...

I find the Leafs, and their fans less obnoxious than I normally do. I think it boils down to them actually having reasons to be happy with their team prevent them from over compensating. I spent my life hating the Leafs and I can singularly say, I hate them less now than I ever have at any point in time.

I used to actually live in a condo directly between the ACC and the Skydome. It was actually fun going down to street level to soak in the tears of the most recent Leafs loss in person. They've done a good job in recent years of almost creating a tailgate like environment for each Leaf and Raptor game.

I'm 0-8, including the famed Sundin OT winner, since I moved here and still looking for tickets for December haha.

One year I saw a dad with 3 kids at the game and the Dad and 1 of the kids had flames gear on. I asked the kid what's it like growing up a Flames fan in Toronto (I have a young daughter who I'm already indoctrinating). He said "School can be hard sometimes" and this was before Matthews arrived!

I'm in Toronto every other week for work, and somehow EVERY bloody game seems to fall on the day I arrive (Monday) or the day I leave (Thursday), or the one game I could actually make it to was a weekday matinee game.

Who the hell schedules an NHL game at 2 PM ET on a Tuesday?

If anyone is keen to meet downtown tonight to catch the game let me know!

I've lived in the GTA my whole life, and have hated the leafs with a passion since the Gilmour debacle. Yet I have to agree that the current edition is less despicable than other versions of the leafs. Other than Kadri and the fact they were gifted a franchise centre, it's a less obnoxious team than the one that iced the likes of Darcy Tucker and Bryan McCabe, and cried about the refs and the scheduling always being against them.

Of course, moving to Hamilton and ignoring the pom-pom waving leaf media helps too.

Does anyone have leads on face value tickets for the December 6th game? I need to see Jagr in that flaming C. Thanks.

[Wyguy]

Knowing my luck he won't be there!

Last year I went to a Jays game and they sat out JB JD and Tulo was out, and I was very upset. Even more so when it was like 10;4 bottoms of the ninth... We did, however, manage the biggest comeback in Jays history with a grand slam walk off! And FYI, I will be there and I have never lost any game I have been to, I haven't been for the last like 7 years tho, bout time we when eh?

This might be by first year not making it to Detroit unless I can get my passport in time.

Funny that we've probably been at the same game for years.
