There was a proper flood in Calgary last spring, during the snow melt. This image was taken during a time out in an ice hockey match in the city's Saddledome, a timeout during which harassed officials - this is a very important game in Canada - were considering whether it would be OK for the players to use snorkels. Not surprising that the crowd is a bit thin.
PS: matches at the dome look to be a bit cheaper than at our own Emirates stadium. So tomorrow you can see the Calgary Flames vs. Edmonton Oilers match for from C$40 whereas tickets at the Emirates start at about C$45 and rise to more than C£200.
