Hey everyone!
I hope that you all had awesome holidays! This year started out right, as we cheered on the Calgary Flames and Phoenix Coyotes. I have to tell you that I am a HUGE Flames fan, so going to the game as royalty for the featured theme “Western Night” was yet another dream come true! Oh but my story gets even better! We arrived and started greeting the fans at the door, Nikkole and I perhaps had too much fun doing this! We then were on the Jumbo-tron as we assisted in handing out prizes to lucky contestants for infield tickets to the Stampede Rodeo and a $100 gift certificate to the Stampede Mercantile… Lucky!
We watched the majority of the game right where the big zambonis come in through the gates! I still can’t believe we were so close to the action! We also got to hang out with “the Guns of the Golden West” as they showed off their fancy guns. Then the unbelievable happened, we were asked to go out on the ice during the intermission to cheer on the “dance off” competitors! That was so wild!
The excitement of the night went on, Nikkole got the game puck, and George Canyon himself came and introduced himself to us!! He is so talented! I could go on and on about how awesome this night was, I hardly even noticed that the Flames didn’t triumph this time! But you’ll still hear me cheering… GO FLAMES GO!
Happy Trails!
