So thank you, youre all beyond awesome, but 1 air ticket and everything around it is more than enough! Hope you understand...

Summer of 2020 then, arrive in time for the cup parade.

Again, apologies if I missed anyone, I mean no offense I've been getting a ton of PMs the last couple days. If your name should be here but it isnt I can be persuaded to add it for the low, low cost of a small bribe monetary contribution.

First of all, cool! Thats awesome to hear. I love that calgaryboy is basically a celebrity without a sex scandal or having to really work at it. Its rare that you can do one without the other, but hes just that good.
Secondly, okay, I apologize to some people who are attempting to contribute to the cause, apparently TD has acquired a case of 'America' and forgotten how to email money.
They have indicated that theres an issue with their system, but I have transfers pending that are just sitting there, I'm currently on hold with TD (running at 41 minutes on hold now) and I will see whats happening, but if you sent me money and are wondering what my holier-than-thou deal is because I'm not taking it, rest assured, I will relive you of your money as soon as my stupid bank allows me to.

Wow, this is incredible. I had no idea and wish I was contacted as well. As for the away dates. If you like, I can talk with my work, Craft, and get something set up at min cost and freebies. Food, drinks and a VIP area. I work at both Crafts (Downtown and southcenter) I'm pretty sure this won't be a hard sell to my boss's.
Let me know if you would like me to pursue and to which venue.
Cheers!

You are effectively my new favorite person. I apologize for not contacting you but I didnt know that you worked in a bar and thats my mistake.
We are looking at opportunities to thank people who have contributed to the cause, so if you're able, we're grateful.

Lol, no biggy. These games are on a Sunday/Monday. Which won't be hard to plan for. I would just need what day, numbers and which venue. We have lots of time, so can plan appropriately. Meanwhile, I'll see what I can squeeze out of them!

Ladies and Gentlemen, boys and girls, children of all ages! I am pleased to announce that we have purchased Petr's ticket thanks in large part to all of your generous donations but also because our very own STeely used a chunk of his travel points on Petr's ticket.
DO NOT THANK THIS POST!!
Find one of Steely's posts somewhere and thank that!

Flight details
Arrives March 9th a 2:55pm
Departs March 23 at 6:55pm
He's connecting through the ever efficient Frankfurt airport flying on Air Canada.
Talking to CB this morning he is super pumped about having things booked. He's excited to be flying on a Dreamliner and even excited to be on an Air Canada flight. He loves that he doesn't have a long layover in Frankfurt. Great job in booking SteeLy.

I have to say that, while obviously I can't get behind cheering for the Flames, this is a pretty freaking awesome thing to do. And I guess it sort of speaks volumes as to why I post here and not on that other Oilers website. Good on all of you.
