UPDATE: Hundreds of eager baseball fans flocked to downtown Toronto on Saturday, desperately seeking free tickets to the Toronto Blue Jays postseason playoff games. The excitement is palpable as Rogers Communications, the owner of the Blue Jays, announced a giveaway of 250 pairs of tickets for each home game in the American League Divisional Series.

The ticket giveaway operates on a first-come, first-served basis, with locations revealed just hours before the games. Fans can expect an announcement at 8:30 a.m. on the morning of each game via Rogers’ social media channels, including Instagram and Facebook. Those unable to make it to the location can still participate by commenting on the Instagram post by 10 a.m. for a chance to win one of 10 pairs of tickets for that day’s match.

Among the crowd, one father, who woke up at 6:00 a.m. to secure tickets for himself and his young son, shared his excitement with CityNews. “We raced down here, once we found out the location,” he said. “Everybody’s jogging today.”

“This is a great opportunity to support the team, and we’re just happy to be here,” another fan enthusiastically stated while waiting in line.

The Toronto Blue Jays are set to clash with the New York Yankees at the Rogers Centre this Saturday. Game 1 kicks off the series, followed by Game 2 on Sunday. If necessary, a decisive Game 5 will take place on October 13, 2023.

Local businesses and industry groups are welcoming this surge in fan engagement, viewing it as a significant boost to the Toronto economy. With the playoffs generating excitement, the impact is being felt across the city.

All tickets issued through this giveaway are non-transferable, emphasizing the exclusivity of this opportunity for fans. As the Blue Jays gear up for a high-stakes showdown, the energy in Toronto is electric.
