You get: great game ticket, huge Flames fan, maybe a ride there and back (depends where you live)

To win this ticket tell me/CP a great Oilers joke, or a sob story of why you never get to see a Flames game, or some reason why you should get to go.

Post or PM, winner picked 2100 tonight.

I have been to 3 in a row (more than all of last year!) and when a generous CPer found out that Calgaryboy is going to the Devils game with Furnaceface...he gifted me with 2 tickets for that game so I could take my daughter to her first ever game. Huge thrill for me. So I think 4/5 is more than enough for me.
Damn you, you glorious basterd.

OOH! OOH! Pick me! Pick me! I never get to leave the house anymore due to parental duties and poverty. And I've had to put Mini-Me the puppet in a straightjacket and locked in my basement due to his unnatural Flames fanaticism driving him to the brink of insanity. And he's chewing through the restraints. The puppet needs a good hockey game!

I think if you went to the game you'd have to bring the puppet.

Yes ladies and gentlemen, there actually is a puppet.

I dont know if the Saddledome, the Flames or even calgaryboy for that matter, are quite prepared for that.

It almost certainly would get you and calgaryboy on TV though.

Wow. The puppet is real.

It was the only thing I thought Aeneas was maybe pulling my leg about a little bit on Friday.

That's awesome.

A pleasure meeting you last night Petr. Although our visit was brief, I can safely say that I've known life-long Flames fans that I would consider die-hard fans that haven't got half the passion for this team as you do.

Hope to see you again before you head home.

Its worth repeating that he is using his vacation time to come to Calgary in November to watch the Flames.

A story so unlikely that he got stopped by border security on his way in. I kid you not.

Aeneas asked if I could upload the Global segment to YouTube so Petr could share it with his friends/family back home.

Here it is, hopefully there are no issues! I uploaded it to another YouTube account in case Global has an issue with it.

going through this, it is damned impressive how many truly generous people are on CP. Aeneas in particular - great stuff! You all are a real credit to the forum!

I'd like to go, and, like Petr, I have a 100% win rate this season for game(s) I've attended this season.

You want a great Oilers joke

A Flames fan and an Oilers fan get into a car accident. Both cars are totally demolished, but amazingly neither of them are hurt. The Flames fan's car has a Flames sticker clearly visible while the Oilers fan's car has an Oilers sticker clearly visible.

After they crawl out of their cars, Oilers fan says, "So you're a Flames fan, that's interesting. I'm a Oilers fan... Wow! Just look at our cars. There's nothing left, but fortunately we are unhurt. This must be a sign from God that we should meet and be friends and live together in peace the rest of our days.

"The Flames fan replied," I agree with you completely, this must be a sign from God!" The Flames fan continued, "And look at this - here's another miracle. My car is completely demolished but this bottle of whisky didn't break. Surely God wants us to drink this and celebrate our good fortune.

"Then he hands the bottle to the Oilers fan. The Oilers fan nods his head in agreement, opens the bottle and takes a few big swigs from the bottle, then hands it back to the Flames fan. The Flames fan takes the bottle, immediately puts the cap back on, and hands it back to the Oilers fan.

The Oilers fan asks, "Aren't you having any?" The Flames fan replies, "No. I think I'll just wait for the police..."

One more and i'm done

An Oilers fan decides to go ice fishing, so he gathers his gear and goes walking around until he finds a big patch of ice. He heads into the center of the ice and begins to saw a hole. All of sudden, a loud booming voice comes out of the sky. "You will find no fish under that ice."

The Oilers fan looks around, but sees no one. He starts sawing again. Once more, the voice speaks, "As I said before, there are no fish under the ice."

The Oilers fan looks all around, high and low, but can't see a single soul. He picks up the saw and tries one more time to finish.

Before he can even start cutting, the huge voice interrupts. "I have warned you three times now. There are no fish!"

The Oilers fan is now flustered and somewhat scared, so he asks the voice, "How do you know there are no fish? Are you God trying to warn me?"

"No" dumb as$, the voice yells out. "I am the manager of this hockey rink!!!
