A rogue Dino crashed the Raptors' Home Opener last night

A Toronto Raptors Fan went rogue, crashing the home opener and handing out surprise gifts like it was his own Jurassic parade.

Toronto Raptors fans were already hyped for the NBA home season opener, and one unexpected superfan stole the spotlight in a big way.

Skipping out on his shift as a Subway Sandwich Artist nearby, this devoted Raptors fan was easy to spot because, well, he’s also a dinosaur.

Spotting him donning his Subway basketball jersey, this prehistoric NBA patron hit the streets before the game to share his love of the Toronto Raptors, soak up the excitement with fellow fans and hand out Subway Canada gift cards.

If you were lucky enough to catch a glimpse of this unmistakable NBA enthusiast (and maybe even score a gift card for something tasty from Subway Canada), you saw him making his way through Jurassic Park (duh) and Union Station before heading to his seat at Scotiabank Arena.

Of course it was Subway behind this head-turning Dino moment, a bold celebration of their ongoing partnership with the Toronto Raptors and the NBA. More than just a chance to treat fans to free sandwiches, bowls, salads, breakfast, or cookies, this stunt brought the hype to life in true Raptors fashion.

From courtside to couch-side, or even on the go, Subway is bringing game-day energy to Canadian basketball fans, fueling the hype all season long.

If you were downtown before tip-off, you might’ve spotted this sandwich-making Dino spreading team spirit, handing out gift cards, and turning heads with his game-day energy, the Toronto Raptors’ most ancient superfan in action.
