Calgary Stampeders
The Calgary Stampeders (Calgary,AB) are named after the Calgary Stampede,the world's largest rodeo,held annually in Calgary.
The team adopted the name in 1945. A stampeder is an animal participating in a sudden,panic-stricken rush of animals. Like the use of stampeder for a person participating in a gold rush at the turn of the last century,stampeder was also likely used to refer to one who attends/participates in the Stampede Rodeo.
The Stampeders have won 8 Grey Cups,with the most recent in 2018.
The Stampeders introduced a new helmet for the 2023 season.
