The Toronto Blue Jays are a Canadian professional baseball team in Toronto. The Blue Jays compete in Major League Baseball (MLB) as a member club of the American League (AL) East Division. Since 1989, the team has played its home games mostly at the Rogers Centre in downtown Toronto.
The Origin of the Name and Colors
The name "Blue Jays" came from the blue jay bird, and blue is the traditional color of Toronto's collegiate and professional sports teams, which include the Maple Leafs (ice hockey) and the Argonauts (Canadian football). In 1976, out of more than 4,000 suggestions, 154 people chose the name "Blue Jays". Additionally, the team was initially owned by the Labatt Brewing Company, the makers of the famous Labatt Blue beer. Informally called the "Jays", the team's official colors are royal blue, white, navy blue, and red.

Bieber's Blue Jays Gear
Justin posed for photos with his fans before sitting in the stands. The "Daisy" hitmaker wore a baby blue Blue Jays baseball jersey with short sleeves, with "Bieber" on the back paired with the number "57" and a maroon beanie cap. He also posted a zoomed-in picture on his Instagram Stories and played Prince's song "Purple Rain" over the video. Hailey chose to wear a grey jacket instead of Blue Jays gear. Justin took a photo of the field from his seat and posted it on his Instagram story. The post without a caption showed the players on the field for the evening outing.
A Longtime Toronto Sports Fan
The Toronto Blue Jays commented "Beliebers" on their story. Justin has always been vocal about supporting Toronto, and he also did a jersey collaboration with the Toronto Maple Leafs in 2022. He said, "My love for the Maple Leafs is deep, and the love I have for the team and the millions of fans is combined in this next jersey. I am grateful to the Leafs for giving me the opportunity to team up again to create something so authentic for the team and its fans."
Date Nights at the Game

The couple was seen enthusiastically cheering for the Maple Leafs while they were playing against the Florida Panthers. "Nothing better than me and the wife at a @mapleleafs game! Go Leafs Go," Justin captioned his and Hailey's photo from the game.
