Default Red lot Viewing Party EDIT: + hidden discussion on flames ice cream

Plan on going to the red lot viewing party tonight… just wondering how early I should go?

From my understanding it’s first come first serve? So I’m unsure how quickly the first two games have filled up.

Also P.S. totally unrelated, but Calgary co-op now has the flames ice cream and I really want to get some

Believe the gates open at 4:30. Looked like there was still lots of room when I was walking to the Dome for Game 1, and I got there right before the anthems.

I would probably get there at 3pm just to be safe. Plus, then even if you have to sit there bored for 4 hours while no one else is there until 530ish you'll get dibs on a picnic table and can eat your flames ice cream comfortably with plenty of time to do so

Sounds good! I think we were planning on getting there at around 7:00 ish so that should leave us with lots of time to spare!

That's the same flavour as the Dome malts? If so, I want to get myself some...

Doors open at 4:30 PM. They have capacity for upwards of 5,000 but only hit ~2,800 last game. You'll get in no problem, just may be further back from the screen if you're not entering the Dome.

Prepare yourself for $10 regular cans of beer.

I appreciate the fans that do this. I know I'm old, but it seems like everyone is standing for the entire game and that doesn't look fun. To me anyway.

From my understanding, it’s “swirl” flavoured!

Haha! I’m a university student but I can see how standing may be a turnoff for many! Anyways, no matter how u watch, I think it’s so great the flames are rallying the community together at the game, or in the red lot, or at the bars, or even at home!!!

Maybe I'll see you down there. I'll be wearing my Atlanta jersey.

Is there a reason the red lot is closed for away games? What, they don't like $$?
