This used to be the URL for a story on the @DeptofDefense website about Jackie Robinson's time in the Army. The story has been removed. The ghouls who did this should be ashamed. Jackie Robinson was the embodiment of an American hero. Fix this now. https://t.co/rEpZFUbJ8h

If you're a #Flames or Hitmen fan heading to games this month, you'll notice that the parking gates at Stampede Park are *gone*.

That's on purpose: the Stampede lots are now on Park Plus, which should alleviate bottlenecks getting in but you'll need their app to pay for parking.
