Why Jurassic Park is ground zero for Raptors fans

It’s five minutes before tip off, and the crowd in Jurassic Park is ready to go.

“We the North! We the North!” they scream.

The chant has become a mantra, a prayer and a spell for fans who hope to see the Toronto Raptors make it past the opening round of the playoffs — something they’ve failed to do two years in a row.

“We feel like we’re bringing some luck for the Raptors,” said Hagin George, who watched the team earn a decisive victory against the Indiana Pacers during Game 3 on the big screen at Jurassic Park.
