From Tragic Falls to Dizzying Heights: Calgary's Unforgettable Events

Calgary Flames - CNRL - Peter Bennett - Shell Centre - tragedy - Wallenda performance

Calgary's recent buzz - from daring Wallenda performances to the Flames' shot-blockers to a Moose on the Loose!

In the midst of Calgary's vibrant scene, tragedy struck with the Wallenda performance as the pyramid formation collapsed. Performers Jana Schepp and Mario Wallenda suffered injuries in the heart-stopping incident that left spectators in awe. Meanwhile, the Calgary Flames' trio of shot-blockers have been making headlines, ranking in the Top-12 in the NHL. Transitioning to downtown Calgary, the iconic Shell Centre found new life as CNRL secured the entire space, signaling a shift in the city's skyline. On a lighter note, Sylvan Lake's artist Peter Bennett faced a dilemma when his 'Moose on the Loose' chainsaw sculpture vanished from his yard, igniting a community-wide search for the missing masterpiece.
