That is not the answer I was expecting but seems acceptable.

Job interview? There’s no time for work during the playoffs. Don’t make the rest of us look bad.

Agree 100% with this list

As for red in the Dome, I just recently ran into a co-worker I went to a playoff game with years ago (against the Blackhawks...2008?). 11 years later, and his main memory of that game was the awkwardness I made him feel due to his lack of red clothing. We managed to find a red and black jacket to put him in, but I was weighing the options on whether or not to ditch him.

Nice guy. Not enough red.
I was at the Northhill FanAttic store yesterday ( Tuesday) and they had 5 left. I bought one, not sure how many of the remaining were sold. I would phone first. They will put one on hold for 1 day.

OK, I guess if I am unemployed and out of a job, I don't need to shave anyways.

And I will go back and hide in the "Layoffs in the Oilfields" and "I need a new job" threads, while wearing red.....

I’m on the recruiting team for my company which is currently hiring for the public sector. If you’re legit looking and stuck in the oil/gas quagmire seeking opportunity outside that industry, send me a PM and I’ll provide some details for consideration. Cheers

It figures. The only person on the bus to the game wearing a white jersey is also the only one singing along to Boney M.

Give them one warning to buy something Red in the concourse. After that, Red Spray Paint.

At the game last night, the video crew made fun of a non-red wearing fan. They did something similar to their Lost Fan segment.

On a TV timeout, they found one guy in a solid green hoodie, surrounded by a hundred red Flames jerseys, and isolated him on the jumbotron.

"Fans, we have a serious public service announcement. This is the C of RED! This is not the C of Green! What are you thinking? Let's help this guy out!!!"

And then they toggled the green video to Red and pasted an overlayed Flames C on him, to the cheers of 19 Thousand.

It was awesome. Best TV timeout of the game.

Was just gonna say this. I don't care if you had a long 5pm meeting..T-shirts at the Dome FanAttic are like $20. Just throw it on over your dress shirt and under your blazer, like I saw a few guys doing.

For all the posters who keep trying to justify their reasons not to wear red to the game.

Saw a really passionate fan wearing a red shirt but had the green hard hat. Is the green hard hat ok?

Is the green hard hat red?

If it's not red, leave it at home.

Last night the Flames wives and girlfriends all had custom RED jackets with Calgary on the front and their player’s name and number on the back. Saw Frolik, Hathaway, Jankowski, and Ryan — you could tell it was a bit of a DIY job but impressive nonetheless:

People who don’t wear red are knobs and should be publicly shamed as a result.

Wear red you bozos.
