It was lots of drums and chants and individual songs. I was at one game and said to my Swedish friend that the atmosphere was so great and different than Canada. He said, yeah well because all Americans want to do at games is eat. And that hit hard lol



Hell even Asian sporting events are a better atmosphere
What do you mean by the bolded?

Anyone know if the Flames are doing the Hockey Happy Hour thing before the game for playoffs? ($5 burgers and beers at concessions?)

I want to say they stopped doing this when COVID hit, but it sure would be handy now.

They are doing happy hour still yes.



But get their mega early, the lines inside are insane 45 minutes before puck drop. Took us forever to get through the bar line last night. Also lots of guy getting 2 double mixed drinks... SMART!

ok this is a little violent but hear me out:

Abduct random drifters and nerdowells (litterbugs, people who do u turns, etc) dress them up in oiler jerseys and toss them from the saddledome roof randomly during stoppages and put in on the video board. That will get the fans jacked

Yes but this is the size limits off the Saddledome website.

For all we know, that was the last bit of juju needed to get it done. '

All hands on deck, boys.

Lock up your wife, lock up your kids (if they're bad luck).

It's a second round Battle of Alberta... Lock your minor children in their bedroom if they have bad juju. Lock your adult children out of the house if they have bad juju. Get a divorce if your spouse has bad juju.

Do your part.

Wonder how the divorce proceedings are going for the guy that said he's leave his wife if Toffoli scored and the Flames won.

Have to honour our bets. The hockey gods will hold us to them.

Yeah, I've been to a baseball game in Japan and it's pretty crazy! Which was surprising as (I'm generalizing here) in public, most of the time in Japan, people are reserved and sure to be calm.

Do your part.

Or better yet, lock yourself in the bathroom if you have bad juju.
