One of my largest customers is there. I'd love to go. They say it's pretty crazy. Take some pics and post a review. Specifically interested in the food their. I'm thinking that it will be very pedestrian, but hoping for some cool things.

Headed out there this weekend, mostly for family trip in Banff. But we'll be at the stampede Saturday. Looking forward to the highs in the 70s and lows in the 50s

Any food advice while there? Looking online, seems like there are a lot of good options.

Heading there this weekend for a bachelor party. Half the group renting a cabin in Banff tomorrow and meeting the rest of us in the city Friday. All of our first times, any pro tips?

Cowboys tent is where the party is. Go there and you won’t be disappointed.

For eats in Calgary, check out:

- ten foot Henry
- Bridgette bar
- anju

Cowboys tent at night, or during the day?

I got reservations at river cafe on the island (as long as the plane is on time Friday). Just found it scrolling on Google maps. Hopefully it's as good as the reviews say?

River Cafe should have been on my list. During day is solid for that place, sit outside.

Cowboy tent is rocking day or night, but shite really gets fun and crazy at night time.

If it’s just guys, go have dinner at a place called Joey (Eau Claire location). The wait staff is all girls and they’re fine as shite.

Sit with Dez, Liz, Bobbie Jean, Michelle, or Sam. Sam bartends sometimes but is the best one of the bunch. Leesan is the manager of the hostesses and is a fine Korean gal. I’d bang her first.

I'm trying to pack light, would rather not bring boots. Will I look like a douchey tourist in shorts and tennis shoes?

Not at all. Calgary is a chill city. They just like to dress up for one week and pretend it's the wild west.

Here is Bobbie Jean's IG page

Go to JOEY for dinner...not a strip club, but has lots of fine women.

Add Cucina to your list of eats. Had dinner there last night and the gnocchi was out of this world.

Sit on the patio and enjoy all of the people watching. Also, the Barcelona Tavern is right next-door for Spanish tapas. They also have a patio that is packed and full of eye candy starting at 3 PM

Anywhere up and down Stephen Avenue, also known as eighth Avenue, will be jampacked full of people all week all day. Good place to walk around and eat and drink and people watch

Don't think so. Wife isn't 100% so we're just doing a couple easy ones. Wish we could be more adventurous but that'll have to be another time.
