Around 10 pm, near 17th and 5th. Lots of honking and High-Fives. No police at first, but then they came and the helicopter too.

In 2004 I was in college and my buddy and I scored tickets to a first round game. I was at Eastern Washington University. Long story short, I got very sick and we ended up not being able to attend. I watched the playoff run during my Chemo treatments and stem cell transplants at a hospital in Seattle. Now, my college buddy called me tonight that I haven't seen in years and we are going to try to recreate that trip. Wish I could have experienced the C of Red in 2004....but I am sure this year is going to be awesome!

Hopefully the police will not ruin the fun on 17th like they did the last few playoffs the Flames were in.

'89 with Håkan Loob would have been awesome.

What about...

Let's have a show for John Gaudreau? (Ortio sounds better, works with roster names ending in 'o' sounds.)
Let loose a bit for Sam Bennett?
_____ in demand for Mike Ferland?


I'm awful.

That, and helping to stop anything that might get out of hand. Plus, helping to clean garbage up and disrupting the neighborhoods would be nice.

Oh, and being nice to the CPS and others on patrol. Help make life easier for them, they might do the same for us.

As someone who lives a block off of 17th Ave, this is going to be a very noisy, sleep deprived spring for me.

Bring. It. On.

While the force said it will once again deploy its own power play to keep a lid on drunken exuberance on the bar-studded stretch, they’re also hoping fans will celebrate elsewhere in Calgary, spokesman Kevin Brookwell said Friday.

“We do encourage that as well and not come down to 17th Avenue,” said Brookwell, the morning after the Flames secured their first post-season spot since 2009.
Haha good luck getting Flames fans to celebrate somewhere else.

Police preparing a crackdown on off-side Flames playoff revellers are urging Calgarians to take their party away from 17 Ave. S.W.
Didn't NWA have an appropriate response to this? People can be on 17th Ave if they want to. It's a free country the last time I checked.

I always felt 4th Street would be an awesome for Flames celebration. Walkable from the dome, have the Ship and National at 17th and bars like Wurst/Joyce/Earls Tin/etc along the area. Plus the road is less busy then 17th. Lilac festival proves that street would be awesome

Wow... crazy. I was just thinking something similar. But I was more thinking overflow to 4th. 17th and 4th would both be occupied.
