| - A - List. Highly Recommended. The best bang for the buck in town (assuming you like hockey) is without a doubt the Calgary Hitmen @ the Saddledome. The action is fast-paced and the players are skilled. In addtion, you will get many of the extras that you might see at a Flames game: big screen entertainment, lots of noise from the loud speaker system, non-stop advertisements on the electronic wrap-around board, prize giveaways to audience members (brain freeze slush competition, skill-testing questions), kiss cam, little guys & gals hockey game at intermission and, of course, Farley the mascot walking, running, sitting, climbing, balancing and hitting (his very loud drum) his way around the Dome. This is an excellent opportunity for families to get out and into the Dome for an afternoon or evening event. You can purchase your tickets online through ticketmaster. With ticketmaster, you can save if you input the Friends of the Hitmen code. I found a code for an upcoming game by wandering to JACK.FM's facebook page (http://www.facebook.com/mattandericonjack). Playoff tickets for 2 cost $27.75 (including the print the tickets yourself option) in full with seats in the corner and 3 rows from the glass. Those same seats to the Flames will cost $160 per seat through ticketmaster. You can also get tickets through 7-11 stores at a substantial discount. Support the Hitmen! Get out of the house! Have Fun!
