He was and is a devout baseball fan, never once straying from the Toronto Blue Jays. And because of that there remains no better way to catch a baseball game than beside him. By the time I moved back to Toronto, that mentality stayed with me, and the city had developed an especially invigorated thirst for the Blue Jays. The urge to mansplain had (mostly) been decimated by the ubiquity of Blue Jays fandom. RelatedI may not be able to grow a playoff beard, but I no longer feel trepidation stepping onto the subway in my Jays tee or cheering the loudest at a game.
