I'd love the tickets, everyone else in this forum probably deserves them more than me though.

Don't count me or this post. Just wanted to say you've inspired me to pay it forward sometime in the future, when I'm able.

I'm a 19 year old who wants to take this cute girl on a date to a Flames game but can't comfortably afford it. Plus I traded in my Toronto tickets this season for Ottawa tickets so that my parents could go with their friends who had tickets to the game as part as my gift to my mom for her 50th birthday.

Also, as you can see by my posts on here, I'm not just a casual fan. I'm all in on the Flames in terms of knowing everything about our prospects, current players, as well as being a huge advanced stats nerd, etc... so you would be sending a hardcore Flames fan, not just a casual one, though I'm sure most of us on here are hardcore fans (I hope)

Yes, I am pulling the age card. This is a big deal.

My fiancee and I have not had a chance to go to a game in a long while. My 26th birthday will be on the 2nd so a chance to go the game against Buffalo would be a great treat as I would be able to give her a date night and a break from her stresses in post secondary. She just recently got her glasses so every time we had gone to a game before she wasnt able to see anything properly. This would be her first chance to enjoy the game and be able to follow the play clearly. We are also both hardcore flames fans.

It would be great to take him.
If your taking Votes into account, I vote for this one. 9 is the perfect age for a boy to go to his first game with his dad. Able to sit still and watch, and at the same time be totally in wonder of the shear magnitude of 20,000 people screaming and cheering. Also, you would directly be influencing the next generation of flames fan, and potentially, CP'er!

I loved my first game with my dad. Wouldn't replace the memory of that night for anything.

Also, good on ya for doing this!

I would say pick me because Im a great long time flames fan! I always cheer loud and get the crowd going as much as I can. Also dating a new girl who loves hockey but has never been to a game so I would love to take her. Thanks for what you're doing and best of luck to everyone!

Can't make it to the game but just wanted to say that this is awesome. I'm sure whoever goes will have a great experience/memory to cherish. Cheers CG

A dear friend is losing her job by the sounds of things, so extra expenses are pretty slim. Flames (and every Calgary team for that matter) are undefeated with her in attendance.
And I try to be a pretty nice guy.

Also, it's always pretty cool to see people doing something nice for others. Nice gesture for sure.

There is this poor Filipino lady in a hospice that really loves the Flames. Since she can't go, I shall go in her place and then regale all of you about how much she loves the Flames and how she would be sad if they were to move without a new arena and how much she appreciated (me) going to the game. Please think of this poor sick person (did I mention Filipino?) and send me to this game.



(can't go, but fun thread!)

Because that's how it works, CrazyCaper, who I was going to give them to managed to get tickets in another way by winning them. Eric Vail gets tonight's game. I'm also going to be giving away the Panthers game for next month and I'll choose another person in a few minutes.

I'm always happy when I can do things for other people.

When is the Panthers game? If it's next month, to that might be enough time for me to arrange a trip to Calgary for the first time. Put me in the contest!

It's a Saturday game...count me in!
