The Toronto Blue Jays season has been an all around disappointment this year but that did not stop the fans from supporting them and breaking a team record.
The Blue Jays took on the Boston Red Sox last night for their final game of the season in Toronto as they put together a great 6-1 win with pitcher Kevin Gausman on the mound.
The team announced that for the final game in Toronto not only did the fans almost sellout the Rogers Centre but they also broke a record this season for most hot dogs sold in franchise history with over 700,000 hot dogs sold.
The average amound of hot dogs consumed on "Loonie Dogs Night" in Toronto was 56,541 and this year's total surpassed last year which finished at 693,865.
Just a bit shy of a sellout here for Game 159.
#BlueJays have lost five straight coming into tonight, which will be Kevin Gausman's final start of 2024. He's at 175 innings.

While fans would have preferred to see the team breaking records this year, this shows just how loyal the Blue Jays fans are, despite a terrible year, they still showed up to cheer on their team.
Hopefully they will be able to put together a better team for the 2025 season to give these sellout crowds in Toronto something to cheer about as they eat their Loonie hot dogs.
