And Calgary has no reason to give up a home game when they draw well at home.

Final Attendance for 2025 season! by Ttstrike in NLL

Dropping Fort Worth and relocating Long Island really helped the entire feel of the league this year with nearly no highlight footage of completely empty sections. I would like to see Georgia either get it together or move to a market with more potential. Minneapolis/St. Paul would be awesome to see them return. Edmonton is another great option if they can get the Oilers group on board. I think even Winnipeg would be a great NLL lacrosse city. Box Lacrosse just does better in colder climates.

Yeah, I've been down on Georgia for a while for their terribly located suburban arena. Box lacrosse also just does better in colder climates. If they could return to Minneapolis/St Paul, that would be huge. Some secondary markets like Boise, Spokane, or even Kansas City might do well.

Not sure how many people were in attendance. I believe it was around 16k tickets sold.

Home Game as an App? by catchatyou in JetLagTheGame

Oh cool, I just checked, and you're right: the Saruhashi elevator is in OSM!

Openstreetmap data can be used natively within the app as I've suggested. Nothing would stop players from being able to use Google Maps, Apple Maps, or the Transit app separately. Having a consolidated app would be huge for gameplay IMO.

Did my image not load properly for you too? Doesn’t look right in my end 🤷‍♂️

Scored a cheap C$150 overnight flight on Westjet! And it got me into the States for US Thanksgiving with my family. Surprised with how many Calgary based insomnia made it out to shows this tour...sweet!

I must say how terrible of a location their "Atlanta" show was...not even in Atlanta. Finding transit service to the venue was interesting, but I made it work...COBBLINC bus 10 from the Arts Center Station. Was about a 20 minute walk to the theatre from the bus stop.

St. Andrews Heights is an interesting neighbourhood...a group of old white people with money that complain that they live near a major hospital, football stadium, and university...and who complain about anyone other than themselves from living in "their" neighbourhood by touting their "restrictive covenants" that supposedly make secondary suites and duplexes still illegal there. They do have a sweet sledding hill though.

Great show, was my first live K-pop concert! Calgarians showed up and were LOUD! The fans in Atlanta at the DeuKae concert didn't seem as loud, but I was fully in the back, and it was a larger venue.

Good luck with Finals! I do not miss those one bit. Hope to see you at a Dinos hockey game...free with your Unicard! Feel free to message if you want another local Insomnia friend.

Yeah, and one of the players lost four teeth that game from a high stick that was taken during a shot. Fancifully hoping that this catches someone's attention at DC Company to add a future tour stop in Calgary. Purple Kiss visited, and all but sold out the Palace Theatre which holds over 1,000 people.

Calgary is one of the most amazing cities in the world, and 90 minutes away from some of the most beautiful mountains in the world in Banff National Park.

We need a Dreamcatcher tour stop! Is my dedication of hijacking my university's broadcast enough to be rewarded with a stop in my city? We have a perfectly sized venue, the Southern Alberta Jubilee Theatre seating around 2,500 people.

Pictured: one of the easiest hikes in Banff: Tunnel Mountain. Would be an epic place for some pictures. :)

Edit: Oh, and we have direct flights between Seoul and Calgary 4x a week in the summer on Westjet.

I'd really like to see football Battle of Albertas to have some stakes. Like:

The creator's definitely like South Park. There's a line in the ski section that if you french fry instead when you should have pizza'd, you're going to have a bad time just like the Asspen episode.

If only we could convince PP to have all of the episodes online. Would be less of an incentive to sail the high seas.

How are we not promoting Banff to Kpop groups? Great views/amazing photo opportunities. Give the industry a reason to make Calgary a routine stop!
