Default Flames fix mistake in a big way

Ok, I might have trouble sharing this as I can't link directly to the video.
https://touch.facebook.com/NHLFlames...pe=1&source=44

This is crazy cool and one reason why I am proud to call this city my home and to chear for my beloved Flames.

It's the crest on the front, not the name on the back.

What a experiance for the kids!

We had Harvey at a charity game we had a few years back. Great times!

Jamie

Have to be a Facebook kinda guy I guess. Can't see it. I do like the Flames club though!

My friends son played in that game and I went to watch it. It was identical to seeing a flames game right from the singing of the athem, mascots throwing out prizes to the crowd, intermission tricycle races, announcing all goals with a blast of the horn and flame, etc.

Awesome experience. Once in a lifetime for the kids and adults.

Well done Flames.
