Here is my proposal - if you all contribute generously, I will travel around the world for two years, and get my picture taken with every CP poster (I will require luxury accomodations). Then, I will sell you the coffee table book at a reasonable price.
Aeneas gets to be my navigator.
I could see a reality show and movie rights coming out of this.
First guy was Bingo I believe but it might have been the blue haired Flames Draft Watcher as we both back then would spend time at Flames training camps etc. Displaced, Reggie, Lanny, Josef and all the rest from Heckle whatever number it was. Csinmyblood and various others either sharing season tickets or at games, gatherings. Gobsgraham etc. from buy/sell.
It adds up to quite a few and I've listed only a portion of them.
As previously mentioned I have only met Jiri and had a blast post game two of the rookie tournament. My roommate came along, and lets just say he didn't feel so good the next day. The day before, during the first game, I swear I saw a possible trio of CPers behind me in standing room. But didn't want to come across as weird if they weren't.

You'll probably need a loveable caddy for something like this. I nominate Uncle Chester.

A lot of CPHL guys from the 2004-2006 era.
Only met a few, never in a social context, always buy/sell.
I was at a Flames game once last year (winter 07 I think) and some guys I was smoking a joint with introduced their friend as Locke.
I asked "the Locke" (this was back when Locke was fairly new, just as big of a post whore, but new nonetheless). The didn't know what I was talking about and acted fairly suspicious by what I meant by "the Locke".
I never identified myself as a CP but it looks like Locke has a doppleganger out there.
Met alot from the Heckle, Faking The Cut, and the Buy/Sell forum can't really remember all the names, play on a Rec league team with United, and used to work with a women in the Contact Centre at ATB who was a pretty big poster but can't recall the name (Sorry) plus talked to a few people who are lurkers or former posters who have had bad experiences and just don't post anymore. Probably alot more people around than I realize which is cool
Given that I live across the continent, in another country, it's fascinating I've met anyone, but:
Firefly
Oh, and when the Flames played @ Pittsburgh a few seasons ago (I think it was 05-06, I could be wrong), I chatted with a few Flames fans, and I still wonder if maybe they were CP members.
