Justin Bieber invited a few Toronto celebrities for a game of shinny, but forgot to include arguably its biggest icon.
When you think of the city, a few names come to mind. Auston Matthews, Bieber (of course), and none other than the 6ix God himself… Drake! Apparently Drizzy wasn’t popular enough to make the cut for Bieb’s little game, however, and he made sure to call his fellow artist out on it in the comment section of his Instagram post.
Come on Justin… you should have known better!
"Eh"? A good Canadian boy!
Yes, Drake does in fact dabble with a little puck… occasionally. At least that’s what we’re gathering from rent-a-goalie Joe Vercillio in this New York Times article:
The following is an excerpt from The New York Times:
“I got a call around 12:30 at night,” said Vercillo, who is in charge of acquisitions for a small publishing company. “It woke me up. My agent said: ‘Drake has rented the ice. Can you get over in 10 minutes?’”
Vercillo thought it was a prank because no one was inside the arena when he turned up. But soon Drake and his associates arrived, and Vercillo suited up for about 45 minutes of work.
“They gave me 80 or 100 bucks for that,” Vercillo said.
Biebs, now you know. Invite Drake to your next game or your future may hold a lot less Raptors games in it…
