Default How comfortable are you going to games?

With the PreSeason closing in rapidly, how comfortable are you going back to attend flames games?

As much as I want to go to one the latest covid numbers have made me a bit anxious about going to one even with the vaccination requirements.

I imagine there will be a lot of empty seats for the pre-season games

I'm not comfortable paying regular season prices to go to a pre season game

I think I'll be going to a Hitmen game before a Flames game. Just because of all the empty seats and you can sit where you like.

Different situation here, but I am going to watch the Flames play in MSG in October - no fears at all about attending in person

I have some reservations but am planning to go and see how comfortable I feel when there.

I have no idea how they plan to enforce the must be vaccinated rule, how crowded it will be, how compliant people will be with mask wearing etc.

I guess if I don't feel comfortable I can leave and don't have to go back until things change.

They're charging full prices for pre-season games?

Gross, definitely not going then, I can wait.

Was planning to see the Flames in Boston, which is close to where I live; now not so sure. Massachusetts has super high vax rates, but still touch and go.

Not comfortable.

Deferred our season tickets for the first half of the year and will likely extend that to the full season.

Not comfortable at all. Nothing covid related, I'm just afraid watching the Flames in person this season will cause uncontrollable nausea

if indoor masking restrictions are lifted by the Alberta Government, is it still a requirement to get into games? I'm with you, not looking forward to spending that long wearing a mask. Then again maybe I'll just be double fisting the dome beer so i can pull the mask down.

McMahon is outdoors so that should be fine but all Hitmen, Flames, Roughneck games will have mask mandates even if the province doesn't???? anyone know?

With the vaccine mandate and checks in place, I'm actually surprised that I'm quite comfortable going. I'm out in Vancouver and I actually talked to a buddy about it and he's going to ask his friend for a couple of tickets when the Flames are in town.
