Back to the field of skunk dreams for another season! It was a little sunny for the team's unofficial mascots to make an appearance.
Can you spot the tip of the CN Tower? |
It was a pretty good turn out. Everyone was crowded into the shade under the big leafy tree to my left. Sadly, the home team lost a two run advantage in the 7th to lose to the visitors.
I can also report that they. Sold. Beer. In a public park! In Toronto the Good! On a Sunday! We're actually officially allowed to drink in a designated area around the ball park.
To understand how astounding this is you need to know that some neighbourhoods were dry by city bylaw until very, very recently. In fact, Ontario had laws to prohibit sports on Sundays which weren't relaxed until the 60s. The provincial Lord's Day Act wasn't repealed until 80s.
