Flames have made quite a few missteps when it comes to that sort of thing.

Anyone remember the BLUE!!!!! glowing LED things for the home opener about 5-7 years ago?

I think they said it was a mistake that happened too late to fix but come on, how does anyone let the situation get that far.

Or remember during the ducks series in '15 when they gave out the orange pom pom things that were supposed to look like Fire but looked like Duck colors.

We are 0-lots for when they give out thundersticks. I wouldn't touch those GD things the entire run in 04, they were SUCH bad luck.

They better not introduce those stupid things again this year. The Dome doesn't need them anyway.

I still have that stupid Home Depot towel from Game 3 in '04 against the Canucks. That was an epic fail from the marketing team.

Nope. One of the games we won vs the Canucks had thundersticks.

Ah game 3, we got to the nose bleeds around 5ish, and started drinking heroin beers.

That game was rush seating up there for game 3.

I seem to recall the 1st, 2nd...........we won!!!

Sorry for the feels.

I picked both. It was too hard to decide between red and red.

Interesting how vs Canucks game 3, Beasly gets right into the "please stand for the singing of our national anthem".

Then by the Detroit series he let's the crowd roll with the Go Flames Go chants acapella for like 20-30 seconds. The best part about that pre anthem chant is no drum, no intro music, just "Go Flames Go" crowd only.

Another neat thing is the house lights gradually turn on during the anthem to puck drop back then.

Pretty sure we’re getting red glowing thunder sticks for playoffs.

Didn't realize at the time (in 2004) how many people wore white Flames jerseys to the playoffs. The white jerseys kinda stick out like an eye sore. Kinda like the hot girl who brings her ugly friend to the bar so she looks even better

Thanks AC -- these are great!

I uploaded that video of Game 6 of the SCF -- I literally took a video of it playing on my TV, hence the terrible quality. I still have the original VHS tape if you're looking for some new material to upload

Something always bugged me about that night.

Why did the Flames give out white clappers/hockey sticks? instead of red?

And against Vancouver of all teams? Looks like a bunch of white towels that the Canucks wave.

Love the poll! Wondering if it is a trick question though with the spelling of "color". If it is spelt "color" you are in America meaning the you are watching a road playoff game and should wear your white jersey.
