They didn’t say directly what was affected, but they did tell everyone to come with cash or credit.
This is the first “back-to-normal” Calgary Stampede since 2019 with the pandemic canceling the show in 2020 and 2021’s event going off with a few limitations.
The Rogers outages have caused problems all day, with some customers unable to access services such as calling 911 or using their debit cards.
