New Selection Process for Calgary Stampede Entrants Ends Rodeo Border Battle

Calgary becomes a zoo during the Calgary Stampede. I love it. I love the fireworks, those little donuts. I love to wander through the barns as frequently as possible and see the variety of animals that are competing. I love the crowds and the free pancake breakfasts and stampede barbarques all over the city. Most of all, I love the Grandstand Show, the musical, dance and fireworks production put on by the Calgary Stampede Show Band and the Young Canadians of the Calgary Stampede. And I love the fact that I live so close to the Stampede Grounds. Make it great accommodations for folks staying over.

Apparently there is controversy and dispute between the US Rodeo Association and the Canadian one. So they are handling it differently. Shouldn't change things too much for me... I don't go to the rodeo. But that really is the backbone of the Calgary Stampede.

The AAdvantage Dining & The AAdvantage Hotel Programs by Rewards Network - Dining Search Results

Very cool. When we looked at the American Airlines dining promotion, we couldn't find any restaurants in Calgary that would give their points. Now there are 11 (well sort of 8, since all 3 Cannery Row locations are listed).

Right now they're having a triple points promotion.

I've eaten at only some of those places and my favorite on this list is the Blue House Cafe. My cousin Sean works there (say "hi" for me!). I've also eaten at Cannery Row, great for seafood; and at Rajdoot. I used to go to Rajdoot every time I wanted East Indian food, but have since moved on to Glory of India. They have much larger portions and the food is wonderful. (of course, every time we want butter chicken, Art makes it. He makes the best butter chicken in town!)

If you're visiting Calgary - stay at Art's Place Guest House Great for families or groups.
