Toronto Blue Jays

Rogers Centre is home to the Toronto Blue Jays of the MLB.  Rogers Centre is known for being the first stadium to have a fully-retractable motorized roof as well as its hotel attached to it with 70 rooms overlooking the field.  The idea of having an enclosed sports venue came after the horrible weather during the Grey Cup game in November 1982.  The following day, at a rally at Toronto City Hall, tens of thousands of people who were at the game began to chant, “We want a dome!”  The stadium officially opened in June 1989.

Air Canada Centre (ACC) is home to both the Toronto Maple Leafs of the NHL as well as the Toronto Raptors of the NBA.  It is the 11^th busiest arena in the world and is 665,500 aware feet in size!  The venue provides easy access to public transportation since it is connected to Union Station and the underground pedestrian PATH system.  ACC also hosts many concerts and other events.
