loonie dogs record blue jays

Toronto Blue Jays fans ate over 30,000kg of $1 hot dogs this season

Toronto Blue Jays fans are gearing up for the postseason, and also probably resting their stomachs after a season of stuffing their faces with unholy quantities of cheap $1 hot dogs during Loonie Dogs Night promotions on Tuesday home games. 

The popular promotion managed to offload over 800,000 cheap "Loonie Dogs" on Rogers Centre crowds this season, and, with that Jays' AL East-leading squad selling out game after game this season, it should come as little surprise that fans shattered last season's record by almost 100,000 glizzies.

The astounding 826,308 consumed by Rogers Centre crowds during Loonie Dogs promotions in 2025 eclipsed the 727,819 sold during the 2024 season.

This impressive (if not somewhat concerning) record was cemented during the Jays' 4-1 loss to the Boston Red Sox on Tuesday evening, when fans scarfed down 92,896 hot dogs on the final Loonie Dogs Night promotion of the year – falling just short of the record established last month, when fans gobbled down 96,633 glizzies in a single game.

Now, if you're trying to picture what 826K hot dogs would even look like, I've got you covered.

At an average hot dog length of 15 centimetres, Toronto Blue Jays fans consumed enough processed meat on Tuesday home games this year to stretch 123.95 kilometres, or about the same distance between the Rogers Centre in Toronto and Woodstock, Ont.

With each hot dog weighing approximately 38 grams, the over 826K glizzies gobbled by Jays fans during this season's Loonie Dogs Night promotions would add up to a staggering 31,399.7 kilograms, roughly equivalent to the weight of an adult humpback whale.

Loonie Dogs Night promotions have now wrapped for the 2025 season, and fans are undoubtedly looking forward to another season of the gut-busting tradition next year.
