Default Question: Instagram Account for the Calgary Flames...

i wanted to pitch an idea to whoever runs the Instagram account for the Flames.

Other teams have given opportunities to local Instagrammers to "control their account for opening day" or a game during the regular season...

I wanted to pitch myself for an opportunity to shoot the first home game on Oct 6th against the Canucks.

There are lots of talented photographers in this city that could really post some cool photos for their account and i was wondering if anyone on this forum would know who to actually email or call to make a pitch...

With all of that said.... thank you for your time CP.... Go Flames Go! Hopefully both split squads tonight take down the Islanders.

My Instagram Account: @Asim_Overstands (i'm in NO WAY a professional haha)

I think it's Mike Board editor@calgaryflames.com

You could also try Geordie Macleod gmacleod@calgaryflames.com

Pretty sure it would be one of those two.

The pessimist (or maybe optimist) in me loves the idea of a Flames fan controlling an official team account for Nucks game. What could go wrong!

Thank you so much. I sit in an office all day and this has become a very fun hobby I have got into for the past 3 years

Hahaha I would be very professional. I just bring up the nucks game because it is opening day. I just want to post the same style as the current Instagram Account... I just think I can make it look better and with point of view

Isn't Mike Board the GM of the Roughnecks?

Yes, in addition to being the Digital Content Director for all 3 teams. Or last I was aware of anyway. The Flames site still lists him in that position as well.

thank you so much!

its the only "hobby" i have stuck with longer than 1 year and it has totally enhanced my travels. i now see every new place i go to in a different light.

i believe i can bring a unique perspective to the Flames Instagram... i just need the opportunity and access to the players and the behind the scenes stuff.
