    When the jays aren't playing they have tours of the rogers centre.You get to see alot of the stadium and all the sections. It's a really nice tour and about 15 dollars each. They usually have them on the hour and you pay for it/meet up @ a little office to the right of the main entrance(home of the toronto blue jays sign) and directly across from the cn tower. I enjoyed this tour wayyy more than the cn tower which was expensive and i thought kind of boring by comparison.

    When the roof is open it is a 1000 times better but either way...don't be messing with the Jays...that will not be accepted by us locals.

    I love the Jays. Just don't like that dome ; )
    I would have loved for a game to be going on while up there, one more Stadium I could have checked off.

    Might have to check that out. I've been up on the CN tower a few times. A tour inside the Rogers Centre would be great. It would be either on the 9th afternoon or on the 12th.

    But would of loved to of seen a Jay's game.

    Pre party is less then a 6 minute walk to the ACC.

    It's got a patio too. Sweet. Hope it's sunny on Tuesday & Wednesday.

    Right now that patio is buried in snow
    Wow! Don't think it'll be snowing early May in Toronto, right?
    Looking out the window is not pleasant right now. That patio is easily a snowy wasteland at the moment.

    Good info Dem but warning to those thinking of going there are probably better ways to spend $16. The skydome ISN'T that nice ; )

    Anything you lose from being honest
    You never really had to begin with.


    Sometimes it's not the song that makes you emotional it's the people and things that come to your mind when you hear it.
