Viral Oilers Fan Reveals in New Interview How Last Playoffs Changed Her Life
One Oilers fan had her life change when she flashed the Edmonton crowd in last year's playoff run, and now she's fully embracing a lengthy five seconds of fame.
Kait Flynn was the infamous Oilers flasher, who skyrocketed to online fame for the incident before signing a deal with Playboy Magazine. She recently sat down for an interview with the magazine detailing just how much her life has changed since last spring.
»I've never had just f**k you money. I've not been dumb with the money, I'm not out partying like a rock star or anything. I bought a pickup [with] cash.»
Despite pulling in modelling cash on the side and finding a way to capitalize on her drunken moment, Kait is still working her job in the Oil Sands everyday. Honestly, it's a best case scenario for her to take the positive attention but stay close to her Alberta roots and not fly off the handle too much. Kait has now amassed a social media following above 100,000 all platforms, actually becoming a figure for Oilers fan online.
Kait initially avoided the public attention after the video went viral overnight, but after around a week of hiding, she stepped out and spoke publicly.
The video was everywhere at the time, so much so that the Oilers players even were aware of it.
Evander Kane spoke about the video once, even saying that the players loved her wearing a Sam Gagner jersey in the video.
At the end of the day, if your most public drunken mistake netted you a brand new pickup truck, that's a pretty good deal. Maybe the Oilers microcelebrity is spotted at a few more games this season.
