When you are the legend that is Jaromir Jagr, you get your own group of travelling look-a-likes.
The "Travelling Jagrs" have been attending the NHL games of the real Jaromir for over a decade, and were in attendance Saturday night in Calgary in hopes of meeting their idol.
Jagr did not disappoint, surprising the crew of long-haired, jersey-rocking puckheads with a custom Flames sweater with his famous No. 68 freshly minted on the back.

The group of "Jagrs" was founded in the province of Alberta, so their excitement with Jagr's signing with Calgary is understandable. Their choices of wigs, on the other hand, are somewhat questionable.
