Well since there is no NHL right now what is the Saddledome to do? What are season's ticket holder's to do? Since you asked, I will tell you!! Our friends Jewely and Nadir have season tickets for the Flames, and this year with the lockout, the Saddledome is more like a haunted hangout rather then a bustling NHL rink. Ticket holders were offered a family skate day over the Thanksgiving weekend, and when Nadir offered us with the chance to be his family, who were we to say no! It was great, free hot dogs, chips, pop, free skating at an NHL rink and a chance to win prizes! Count us in!! Grace was only a tad bit excited to "actually skate where the "real" players skate"! Olivia had not been on ice yet - she wears her skates all the time in the house, but lets set those ice standards high and start in the Saddledome! Anyways I think the girls had a blast, not to mention Mike! Nadir and I chose to be the official photographers, as we did not want the night to finish in the ER! Oh and the prize thing - yup, Little Olivia won a Roughnecks jersey - it will fit her...NEVER - it's a little big!
