Default The Saddledome experience

Hello CP.

I'm taking my girlfriend for her first C of Red experience and I want her to have an awesome time. Everyone has their own ritual, mine are pocketdawgs and heroine beer.

Quite simply, does CP have any tips? (Food, hangout spot, saddledome tips and tricks, etc.) Thanks in advance!

Looks like I should plan to go to a Wednesday game for wing night.

Edit: learned that Loungeburger is on MacLeod. Leaning more towards things in the dome.

I've only been to Loungeburger once for a stag followed by a Stamps game, but it was a great atmosphere.

Visit the Fanattic. Go early enough to watch warm-up. Show her the Flames history display at the zamboni end of the rink on the concourse.

The beer is the principal female character in a story, play, or film?

Yes, the Flames are the heroes of the story and the beer is the heroine.

A twist malt is one of the best things at a game besides the beer. I always get a malt during second intermission.

5 dollar parking at arby's. Get there early enough to watch the warm ups and go down to the glass to get some selfies with the players in the back ground. And then the pocket dawgs heroin beer experience. Hit the casino after.

If you get there early enough, you can find street parking within a block or two of Arby's for free. If it's a weeknight game, there's no parking on 11th Ave west of Macleod Trail during rush hour (until 6), so if you get there shortly after 6, there's plenty of places to park.

This is almost exactly what we did last Saturday! Got there a bit early, visited the store, watched the pre game skate, checked out the auction items and the displays. Sat 3 rows up from the ice, she had a great time. She also loved the pocketdawg. Not a euphemism.

Challenge the metal detectors, and request a couples patdown.

What time is the pre-game skate?

I've been slowly indoctrinating her, she's from Toronto and her favourite player used to be Kadri but now she's a Moneyhands fan. It would be sweet if she got a pic or a signed puck from Monny. Is there an opportunity for this during pre-game?
