In memory of The Red Mile a name given to a several-block stretch of 17th Avenue S.W. in Calgary, Alberta, Canada during the Calgary Flames 2004 Stanley Cup playoff run. It gained world wide notoriety both for the relative lack of violence while upwards of 55 000 fans celebrated their team's success, as well as for the Mardi Gras-like atmosphere as societal norms were routinely flouted, particularly by women flashing their breasts.
The 'Red' originates from the home team colour of the Calgary Flames' jerseys, red, similarly characterized by the 'Sea of Red' seen at many home games in the Saddledome; 'Sea of Red' and 'C of Red' (for the Flames' flaming C) is a play on words. |

I've posted these photos in another thread somewhere on the site, but I see no reason why they can't be shared once more here. It's too bad these are the only ones that turned out well enough to see what's going on
BTW, the Flames finished their exhibition games with a perfect 7-0 record. There's worse ways to go into another season. Here's hoping for another deep playoff run this spring, so I can add to this collection! ![]() Last edited by gylbert; 10-05-2010 at 02:25 AM. |
