We the North!
The city came alive Thursday night when the Toronto Raptors won their first-ever NBA championship against the Golden State Warriors.
Every corner of downtown Toronto turned into Jurassic Park with Raptors fans chanting in the streets celebrating the historic win. Ryerson University has been tracking the Raptors’ progress through their playoff run since they advanced to the finals. ICYMI, below are some social media posts highlighting the fever, excitement and pride Ryersonians expressed watching their beloved Raptors evolve from an underdog into a championship franchise.
From all of us here at Ryerson, congratulations Toronto Raptors! You’ve made the city proud, #WeTheNorth.
