And not only was he signing autographs for them, but he was asking them how they were doing in school and things of that kind of a nature. I was just amazed that on a night when the team was celebrating, Jarome still had time to stand in the rain and sign those autographs and ask questions of those young kids. I can remember that in my head as if it was yesterday.

Can confirm... I've posted this before but:
Flames Fan Fest in 1999/2000, had just moved here from Regina (hence the Pats t-shirt, which Derrick Morris loved), hadn't watched much NHL or Flames hockey but my dad figured this would be a good time. Went and met the entire team, couple players didn't really give us kids the time of the day (cough: Savard) but Iggi asked us about playing hockey, school, our friends and posed for this awesome picture. He was the one of the most friendly people I had ever met. I was hooked. Favorite player, favorite team!

That pic brings back memories of how well Iggy and Dion worked together in Dion’s earlier years. Shame it didn’t last

The gross error makes you think if some old boys didn’t want him in that club.

I think it’s cool how almost every Flames fan I know has an Iginla story and they’re all positive. That’s how you know the guy was for real.
I still remember the night they retired his jersey he stayed outside the rink until 2am taking pictures with the fans.
We’ll likely never have a player or person like Jarome again.

So many great Iginla stories. Thought maybe some really small ones from the guys who covered Iginla with me on the daily might be a nice addition.
