Newmarket’s Bagel World co-owners Michael and Sarit Bloshtein and Leeann Straeche, and their staff, are cheering on the Raptors in the NBA Finals by making special bagels in honour of the Toronto team.
“We’re making the purple and red bagels every game day and on weekends until they win the championship,” said Sarit Bloshtein. “And the Raptors will win it!”
Local fans are back to the great outdoors tonight, June 7, as the Raptors take on the Warriors in Game 4 of the NBA Finals.
Cheer on the Raptors at Jurassic Commons at Riverwalk Commons, 200 Doug Duncan Dr.
