Make the Oiler fans wear a Flames jersey if they want to attend the game

Good take.
How is there not a beer hat straw that doubles as a mask? Seems so obvious.

That's debatable. I have a mean and needy stomach.

Wondering if any of the players are back skating yet?

Doesn't make much sense to me given the fact that its a vaccinated audience. How about just enforcing masks on when seated but not actively eating/drinking. That with 50% capacity seems adequate.
Totally. This is directly comparable to the systematic murder of millions of people.

Does anyone know if "support staff" includes coaches? Previously I've seen it as "players, coaches, and support staff".

Support staff is probably basically anyone that's not a coach or player but works for the Flames.

As someone whose predecessors WERE actually MURDERED by Nazis (the real ones, not imaginary movie ones or political ones or people enforcing public health orders) I find this completely and utterly offensive.

Season ticket holders will first and foremost be valued. Also each account has a seniority ranking so I imagine highest seniority will take first dibs.

I think I read that other teams were alternating games, ie half of the season ticket holders could go to one game, followed by half for the next game. The math doesn’t work out perfectly as there aren’t 19k season ticket holders, but you get the drift.

And probably not the best business plan to cater solely to your oldest season ticket holders while completely shutting out your newest ones.

If we are that worried about Oilers fans at the Dome, couldn't they just implement a dress code like no jogging pants allowed?

Maybe it’s just me but a big part of watching live sports is the social aspects and for 35 years that included drinks and food with family and friends. Even if there was a TV blackout I wouldn’t go.

I guess for the Jets they're cancelling single game ticket holder's seats. My cousin was supposed to be going to the game against the Wild next Monday but found out today he isn't. That might be something the Flames end up doing too.

Zubazz pants and wife beaters if we need to be more specific.
