To celebrate the occasion, Daryn sent Lucas The Intern (who’s not a sports fan, by the way) to the first Toronto Maple Leafs tailgate party of the season. He asked some stupid Maple Leafs questions to a few super fans before the party, and got some shocking answers!

He also got a chance to go inside the tailgate party where he saw Maple Leafs super fans decked out for the big opening game!
The best moment of the evening though, came when Lucas The Intern MADE IT ON TV! Check out the iconic moment when Lucas crashed a news report via Facebook Live:
Since the cameraman didn’t pull Lucas aside to share some Maple Leaf fun facts with viewers, here they are:
Leafs mascot Carlton the Bear’s name and number (60) are a tribute to the address of Maple Leaf Gardens, 60 Carlton Street!
MLSE, current owners of the Toronto Maple Leafs, claims to have sold out every game since World War II! The wait list for season tickets? Oh, about 15-20 YEARS.
Last but not least, some of the most famous Maple Leaf fans include Justin Bieber, Mike Myers, Chris Hadfield, and Drake!
Even though his view on sports haven’t changed, Lucas had an amazing experience down at the Maple Leafs tailgate party. He also still can’t believe he made it on TV!
On behalf of all of us at KiSS 92.5, we wish our Toronto Maple Leafs a great season! GO LEAFS GO!

The Edmonton Oilers’ New Mascot May Kill You While You Sleep
The Edmonton Oilers introduced Hunter, their first ever mascot, today on Twitter. The team decided to go the “threaten your fans with murder until they cheer,” route, for their mascot.
Hunter is a Canadian Lynx by day, presumed surveyor of children’s playgrounds by night. As Deadspin writes, there was a long process that went into choosing this rabid animal for their mascot:
“One of the main criteria was to select a mascot that was approachable and huggable.
Over 2,200 students from kindergarten through Grade 9 were surveyed to identify the most popular of the mascot candidates produced and Hunter, the Canadian Lynx, was “far and away the most popular” according to Harrop.
The other day they took the newly created Hunter to one of the schools used to test market the mascot to show them the result of their input.”
Hunter’s father, Gary, the No Trash Cougar, is very proud of Hunter’s new job. Hopefully Hunter will follow in his father’s footsteps by bringing joy to children everywhere.
