10Best Says

Formerly the SkyDome, this breathtaking facility is home to the Toronto Blue Jays and right in the heart of downtown. The Rogers Centre has the world's fastest retractable dome, which can help keep unexpected rain from dampening your day. To keep in trend with the home game, the refrain to the Blue Jays theme is "Okay (okay) Blue Jays (blue jays) Let's (let's) play (play) ball." Other major events from big concerts to Papal visits are often held here (and don't require theme song memorization). Typical stadium snacks are on offer, with many vegetarian options if a foot-long hot dog with exotic toppings doesn't float your boat. If you come before the game, consider participating in a Rogers Centre tour, at 11am, 1pm or 3pm.
