    Hey Travis, it's great that you're coming to Toronto I'm sure you'll enjoy your time here.

    The City is very expansive and far reaching and therefore there aren't many dead zones anywhere. Because of this, you don't necessarily have to stay in the hotel in the Rogers Centre, actually I've heard that it's rather expensive to do this so I would steer clear. When planning your trip, look at staying anywhere south of 'Bloor Street' as this is all considered the true downtown of Toronto and will have you in close proximity to pretty much everything.

    In terms of tickets it really depends on the game. If you're coming for a mid week game against say the Twinkies or Royals you can get cheap tickets on game day from scalpers. If you're looking at a Yanks or BoSox game on the weekend then your best bet is to purchase in advance!

    Let me know if you have any other questions about the City and where you should check out; I'd be happy to help.

    No problem, I would definitely say Niagara Falls is a must-see and the HHOF is pretty great as well. Gretzky's is a cool one-off place to go to but nothing really too special. If you have the time I would say definitely try to check out Kensington Market for an eclectic assortment of shops and places to grab a bite (great on weekends as car traffic is eliminated on Sundays). Also Yorkville is a cool place to check out but be ready to open up your wallet, this is where all the beautiful people hang out haha.

    I'll be sure to look for some advice from you if I hit up any parks out of town this year.

    Cheers, spring training is almost here!!

    Awesome ya thanks for the heads up. The Blue Jays are doing a lot of that this year so check their promotional schedule as well. If i'm not mistaken they're giving away 4 bobbleheads, 2 jerseys, and 2 hats this season
