BMO field had a special visitor during tonight’s TFC vs. Orlando City MLS match.
With the game winding down in injury time, a squirrel made its way onto the pitch only to receive an incredible applause. As it ran toward Orlando’s net, fans grew more and more excited, and when it finally crossed the goal line, fans following the action cheered loudly from their seats.
He! Can! Go! All! The! Way! …Touchdown?
When these things happen, fans usually finds themselves wondering how it is these things happen. Still these little rodents manage to find their way into numerous stadiums. Take this other little critter for example, who snuck into Progressive Field during a game between the Cleveland Indians and Minnesota Twins last summer.
It’s not just squirrels that have made their way onto the playing surface. All sorts of animals have had their moments.
It was all smiles tonight as TFC defeated Orlando City on home soil. Witnessing moments like these always make a win even better.
