Edmonton Mayor Amarjeet Sohi made good on a bet with Denver Mayor Michael B. Hancock on Wednesday by donning a Colorado Avalanche jersey.

The two mayors made a bet on the outcome of the Western Conference Final on May 31 with the losing mayor to wear the winning team’s jersey

Sohi posted a photo of himself in the jersey to Twitter.

His post comes the day after Calgary Mayor Jyoti Gondek and some members of Calgary’s city council wore Oilers jerseys to a city council meeting following the Flames lost to the Oilers in the Battle of Alberta in Round 2 of the playoffs.

Sohi, Gondek, and members of both city councils also made donations to the Kids with Cancer Society as part of the bet.
