CALGARY – As the lights dimmed and the music started pumping at Calgary’s Home and Away sports bar last weekend, owner James Martin felt something he hadn’t in a long time – hope.
The bar was maybe 60 to 70 per cent full, nothing like the pre-pandemic days when a big game or a corporate Christmas party would result in a packed house. But since Alberta lifted all COVID-19 restrictions on July 1, Martin has seen a slow but steady increase in customers. The July 9 kickoff of the 10-day Calgary Stampede, just a five-minute walk away, has provided an extra boost as cowboy boot-wearing customers trickle in looking for a drink.
