The Toronto Blue Jays clinching home field advantage for the American League wild card series is expected to bring a much-needed boost to local businesses this fall.
TORONTO - A clinched playoff spot with home-field advantage for the Toronto Blue Jays will bring a much-needed boost to businesses in Toronto and across Canada this fall.
After more than two years of subdued business due to COVID-19-related restrictions, he said restaurants will appreciate the fall uptick in sales from baseball fans. Boston Pizza’s Front St. location sees sales as much as triple when the Blue Jays have a playoff game at home, said spokesperson Marian Raty in an email.
Chris Bloore, president and CEO of the Tourism Industry Association of Ontario, called this the “Raptor bounce.” And it’s not just in Toronto: bars and restaurants across Canada were filled with fans watching the Raptors’ historic run, he said.
