Someone lost a gold ring with "JS" initials at the Fit4Less on MacLeod Plaza on Sunday, July 5 — belonged to his great grandpa, grandpa, then dad (all passed). $800 reward if found. Ring isn't valuable for gold but means everything. Gym won't let them post reward signs, so check r/calgary.
A family in Upper Arbour Lake is looking for their cat Toledo. If you spot him or have any info, post in r/calgary — the family doesn't use Reddit but is asking for help spreading the word.

Someone on Reddit posted that the Stampede grounds felt noticeably smaller this year—especially the BBQ area, which used to have around 4–5 different vendors grouped together but now has only two. Overall, fewer vendors and less to explore compared to past years.
Hit-and-run at Memorial Drive and Deerfoot around 5:15 p.m. Saturday—silver BMW clipped a red Nissan Rogue's back end and took off. Police file #CA26300992; if you saw it, DM or contact police.
If you're budgeting for rides, buying on the grounds costs $10 for 14 tickets, $30 for 58, or $60 for 136. The big Ferris wheel runs 20 tickets, the smaller one 12. Swings are 15, gondola's 12. Folks have been hunting these numbers online and coming up empty.
Lily, a black cat with white chest and paws, went for a night walk Sunday in Coach Hill and hasn't come back. She's microchipped and was wearing a bright green breakaway collar. Her owner thinks fireworks and Stampede noise may have spooked her into hiding or getting lost.
A Calgary family has been dealing with severe diarrhea, stomach cramps, vomiting and nausea for over two weeks. The original poster's wife started it, then their kids—now the 13-year-old's hit hardest and can barely eat. They're heading to children's emergency wondering if it's Cyclospora, the infection outbreak hitting the U.S. right now.

Big crowds on day three pushed attendance past half a million, but some visitors are now second-guessing the cost. The wine cellar's a ghost town and folks are weighing whether it's worth the wallet hit.
The wine bar at the Stampede's Champions Ballroom is packed with inventory but empty of people rn — a wild flip from the hordes of past years. If you're looking for wine without the crush, this is your moment.
