Welcome home Ari…I don’t forget our arguments on here from that 2002 season!

Bring the luck today and then make another visit back in late June for an even bigger game.

Awesome story. I had no idea.

Welcome. I will be at the game. Would like to buy you a beer after we win. PM after the game if you are out and about and we can meet up.

Even in Duttons.

Any time you want / can make the Trek to Cowtown next season I will gladly give you a pair of lower bowl seats for the game. Just message me.

Cheers

I’ve been coming in and out of this forum all day, I’m just so nervous that I can’t think of anything else.

Your story has calmed me down because I find it so heartwarming.

I remember my daily tracking of the season ticket drive from afar - willing sales to hit the magic 14k number. It was a stressful time, particularly with the economic situation and the dollar differential.

That you - a kid (at the time) who had never been to Calgary loved this team so much, that you did this for the team? I don’t know what to say except, thank-you. Not just for what you did, but for how you made me feel reading your story.

GFG!!!!!

Welcome back!! I remember getting to meet you (I think in the parking lot while tailgating) in 2004. I hope you've got some magic left!

What a fascinating story! Welcome to Calgary, calgARI.

Subconsciously, I always considered the Cornell's Big Red "C"to be a little cousin to the Flames' "C".

Enjoy the game! Go Flames!
