Well this is unfortunate, though not surprising. Some people just don't get it.

From the twitter of the guy that started all this

^ Welcome to the internet.

As for Edmonton radio, I really really wish there was some proof of the “burn your Flames stuff” event after the SCF was over, sponsored by an Edmonton radio station, for Oiler fans who jumped ship and cheered for the Flames in 2004.
I believe I saw the clip on the news, but lost likely in cyberspace long ago.

That said, in the early 2000s, tone deaf media outlets here encouraged us to cheer for the Oilers as Alberta’s team when they made the playoffs in 2001. Beyond pathetic.

If that billboard actually gets put up, EPS may as well just station an officer there 24/7. It is far from a stretch that one or many of those mouth breathing fans will vandalize it, and even well within the realm that someone will use a firearm on it.

Edmonton fans are going to retaliate by spending half of Edmonton’s GDP putting up billboards of turtles in Calgary. Little do they know that turtles are on our side and are our good luck charms.

Had to fix that a little, Captain.

I want a neon sign version of my CalgaryPuck signature that I can donate to the Neon Sign Museum in Edmonton.

I hope they keep a few dollars on reserve to put one up in April outside the arena. That way it will sit all summer with nobody noticing.

I feel it may be pretty apropos in asking which TMNT character Matty would be cause he’s a darned ninja, certainly feels like what the edmonchuckians keep saying eh?

I personally feel like he’s got characteristics of both, leadership, intelligent, free spirited and bad boy hahah

Or, donate thousands to a Calgary charity to feed kids

Way to go Edmonton!

I'm reading the venom that is being spat this guy's way on twitter, and it is really sad to see so much hate for someone just having fun. Like personal attacks and over the line comments. I know it's fun to joke it's just salty Edmontonians, but really, this is just sad as a human too.
