The excitement in Toronto is palpable as the Raptors gear up for a monumental NBA season—celebrating 30 unforgettable years in the league. Since their inaugural game in 1995, the Raptors have evolved into a symbol of pride for Toronto and all of Canada. From iconic players like Vince Carter to the team’s remarkable 2019 championship run, these three decades are filled with moments that have shaped basketball culture in the city.

A can for every era
To mark this incredible milestone, Coors Light has released three special limited-edition cans, each representing a different era of Raptors fandom. These collectible cans celebrate the history and passion of Raptors Nation, from the early purple dinosaur days (my personal favourite) to the global “We the North” movement that brought fans together across the country. The designs symbolize the evolution of the team, commemorating key moments that have defined the Raptors’ journey.
Available for a limited time at select LCBO locations, bars, and restaurants throughout the Greater Toronto Area, these cans offer fans a unique way to participate in the celebrations. The special edition Coors Light cans not only mark this significant 30-year milestone but also offer fans the chance to win exclusive Raptors merchandise through a dedicated website.
