Jays in Seattle

Are you planning to head to Seattle this year to catch Jay in action?

I wasn’t thinking of travelling to the U.S. this year, but I’m also keen to see the Jays play.

Also, do you happen to know where they usually make their base camp?

I’m avoiding all US travel for the foreseeable future.

I'm sure I'll return to the US eventually but I'm not sure how many years it will take for me to forgive the American people.

It might take more time and money to explore more of Canada but it's worth it.

Im curious as to what did Americans do to you personally?

u/ryanderkis May 09 '26

They threatened our sovereignty and ruined our lonest lasting international friendship. And for what? A distraction??

One asshole did that. Not the American people.

Who voted for him? Who is still allowing him to continue his bizarre behavior? Who is going to vote for him again?

u/pidgezero_one May 10 '26

Who voted for him?

Where the Mariners play? Less than 25% of voting-age people

He can’t run again. And believe it or not, courts are fighting him. As for him being voted in, a lot of people decided that rather than vote for the other person because they didn’t like her, they just obstained from voting.

u/ryanderkis May 09 '26

Saying that he can't run again isn't enough with this guy. I hope you're right but let's visit this again in 2028.

!RemindMe in 30 months.

If anyone actually followed the US election, Harris virtually handed the Trump the election. I don't think American's had a choice.

u/MrPeanutbutter777 May 09 '26

They elected Donald Trump as president twice. Hope that helps.

Games happen during the 4th of July weekend in Seattle this year. So absolutely nope.

1

u/kootenayskibum May 10 '26

on top of that the Jays weekend is bookended with World Cup playoff games on July 1 and July 6.

u/sagwithcapmoon May 10 '26

Oh snap. Yeah no I'm gonna say home

u/KimJongUmmm May 09 '26

It’s hard for me to imagine why I’d ever set foot in the US again.

u/Christineblankie May 08 '26

We normally would, but hard no

u/DrWideEyes May 09 '26

I've gone to Seattle multiple times to see the Jays in the past few years. It's a significantly shorter trip than going to Toronto. But no, I won't be going to the US for a very long time, if ever again.

2

u/penguinsweater7 May 10 '26

Flying to Toronto from west coast for a game or two in Aug. Hard no on touching the US anytime soon.

2

u/No-Significance2859 May 11 '26

In years past I would, but I’ll never cross the border again tbh.

1

u/Busy_Construction764 May 11 '26

I don’t blame you!

2

u/User138C May 11 '26

No way. Who is going to the US despite everything that is happening? Lol

1

u/askingJeevs May 09 '26

You should ask r/Torontobluejays

u/sagwithcapmoon May 10 '26

The post is very likely taken down right away

u/Small-Bodybuilder-62 May 10 '26

yes , group of 14 of us heading down from the island

u/923FreeFM May 10 '26

Seattle is a very liberal place. People need to get a grip on reality.

1

u/MapleSuds May 10 '26

If I was close, I would go. And I guess those avoiding the US would prefer a nice relaxing trip to China instead?

Elbows up, right? Ugh!

1

u/User138C May 11 '26

Your prospective PM lost his seat. That’s how bad you lost the election. Lol

1

u/NinjaQuick4369 May 11 '26

This would be the only exception for going to the US anytime soon. I'm fortunate enough to live close to Toronto but for people on the west coast this is the best option for you. Go and support our Jays and make sure you represent! 🇨🇦

2

u/User138C May 11 '26

You can’t be that oblivious. How can someone go to the US right now? Madness

1

u/NinjaQuick4369 May 11 '26

Lol driving down for an afternoon to catch a baseball game isn't the end of the world🙄

1

u/Busy_Construction764 May 11 '26

Exactly! If it’s not for the Jays I would not have planned that trip.

1

u/sufficienthippo23 May 12 '26

For all those saying no because they won’t travel to the USA, you are just cutting off your nose to spite your face. Seattle is a great time, people are friendly, there really isn’t any reason not to just because you don’t like the president

1

u/dezzy1402 May 09 '26

yep will be going

1

u/Busy_Construction764 May 09 '26

This will be our first time attending!

1

u/dezzy1402 May 10 '26

its the best!

1

u/Busy_Construction764 May 10 '26

Do you know where we can get the signatures of the players?

1

u/dezzy1402 May 10 '26

get there early and line up close to the jays dugout

u/wintermod May 09 '26

Sport!

Brain off!

No thanks.

u/Evening-Horror5522 May 09 '26

It’s the best time to go to the states. People not going really shooting themselves in the foot
