5 of the weirdest things happening in Calgary this week

Man, will we have a lot to process by Sunday. The good people of YYC will be answering your hard-hitting and no doubt frequently asked questions, like “Sharon?” and “can a mouse pull off a top hat?” Here are 5 of the weirdest things happening in Calgary this week. It’s a doozy of a list, you little weirdos.

WHERE THE $&@$ IS SHARON

We don’t know who Sharon is, or why we’re looking for her, but the organizers of this event must think they’ll find her at the bottom of a glass, because they’re having the search party meet them at a bar. Oh, and they’re offering drink specials. Is this an effective approach? Well, if The First 48 has taught us anything… no. Sharon’s probably a goner.

FLOWER READING

He loves you, he loves you not. Hear what your garden has to say for the low, low price of $50. Those Gerber daisies have been giving us side leaf for far too long. It’s time to clear the air. We’re sorry we forgot to ask a friend to water you over spring break last year. But we’ve changed!

TELUS SPARK VALENTINE’S TAXIDERMY WORKSHOP

There’s nothing that’ll get an unsuspecting date going quite like a rodent in a tophat, is there? During the event, all of you daring love birds will examine the biological structure of the mice provided and discover techniques to help prepare your, erhm, mantlepiece? We don’t know, what you do with it afterwards is yours to decide. FYI, this one already sold out. What a time to be alive.
