Using the example from the thread asking what Leafs games you have seen live, what Blue Jays and Raptors were you lucky enough to see live?
For me this is my list of games.
Blue Jays
I went to Game 1 of the 1993 World Series and my Dad's company where he worked at the time gave him tickets to Game 7 had it reached that point.
This past August on the 24th I went to a Blue Jays in St. Petersburg against the Rays at Tropicana Field and purchased my tickets in February of last year in advance, because I got 2nd row over the Blue Jays dugout, however the Jays ended up losing the game 2-0.
Raptors
I was at Game 3 of their 2001 second round series against the 76ers and that was the game when Vince Carter scored 50 points. I remember my Dad getting tickets at the last moment the day of the game and we sat in the last row Purple seats up in the 300 level.
In December 2016 I went to a Raptors game against the Orlando Magic in Orlando, Florida at the Amway Center. The Raptors won 109-79 and there was a fair amount of Raptors fans, especially some not from Toronto. I ended up speaking with some people from Ottawa. Plus compared to the Air Canada Centre the concourse walkways are 10x the size and if you purchased a large Pepsi you were allowed to go back and get free refills. Finally prior to the game I was able to get Jonas Valanciunas autograph on my ticket before he went back to the locker room. When DeRozan and Lowry went past the Raptors fans standing there they ignored everyone, lol.
