My car has been sporting a flag since Sunday. Sadly, Lethbridge has just as many (if not more) Canucks flags around. Pretty disappointing. I had no idea I was living among so many mutants.

MAn I lived in that... town for 7 years and I was constantly appalled at the amount of Greaser and Cansuck fans there. I mean 1 in 10 were Flames fans and that just seemed so wrong to me, just from a geographic standpoint.

IIRC back in the day, some people would add one flag for every win. So by now some should have 3. Does it happen this timw you think?

Still haven't seen many cars around with flags. Is it a thing of the past?

Its growing. I passed about 30 cars with flags on my 25 minute drive home yesterday.

More and more popping up everyday. Neighbor's Vancouver flags disappeared Tuesday night. Flames flags somehow appeared this morning. Hmmmm...

You have to upload it to a third party site and then link it.

Everytime I've ever visited that city, someone always makes it perfectly clear that they just don't like us Calgarians. So I'm not surprised they're cheering for the Canucks.

Although we are seeing reports of car flags being available in some select locations, my experience has been that these are hard to come by. Checked a few of the usual suspect stores on Saturday and couldnt find one anywhere.

Fortunately I was able to grab a couple at the game on Tuesday.

I would suggest that the reason we are seeing fewer than we may like or expect is largely due to the scarcity of them, not because of indifference.

Try calling Canadian Tire stores in the south. Also, Shoppers. Those two are your best bets. London Drugs?
