You're going to have a great time! Show up early to take in the atmosphere. There's nothing quite like a Flames playoff game!

Disappointed that I'm the only person in the office with a jersey on.

I thought I might be the only guy with a jersey on at the office, but the new guy across from me is wearing one too.

the office saturation of jerseys is low. after we win tonight, it will pick up as the bandwagon will start filling up.

My fiancé, who almost never watches, told me today she's "going to jump on this ****ing bandwagon", and watch every game with me.

Kept reading this thread title as excrement around the city, and thought it was yet another thread about Edmonton

Default Excitement around the city

The Core is excited:



We sadly are not allowed to wear our jerseys to work. Or I should say staff isn't cause a couple lawyers were wearing their ugly Oiler jerseys yesterday. If I came in today wearing mine, I would have been called into HR.

Never got this policy.

The morale boosting, "fun" vibe that comes from allowing jerseys on special occasions has to greatly outweigh any potential cost to the company.

Okay maybe if you're in outside sales it could be viewed as unprofessional (although I doubt anyone wouldn't buy something cause the sales guy wore the home team jersey on a playoff game day), but for wearing around the office? Stupid.

So long as you're not working in a funeral home, I don't understand the issue.

agreed. in fact I think it shows your company is 'part of the community' and they're invested as well. Could be a boon.

Late to check in, but I'm representing the Flames down here in South Florida in my retro Monahan jersey. Go Flames! I have confidence in you!

I'm currently buying a lot of beer and I have to work tomorrow. 10:30 pm start for me, but I'm not complaining. Especially considering the start time for other fans around the world. It's the sacrifice I'm willing to make.

Seriously? That's ridiculous. You need a new firm.

Got errands to run around the city, wearing my retro white Nieuwendyk. Anyone else here strategically rock the road whites when the Flames play away games? Or is that my own specialness
