It’s a potentially historical game night in Toronto, as the Raptors look to be crowned official kings of the North.

But actually…

The Raps are back home for Game 5 following two BIG away wins against the Golden State Warriors in California.

Being up 3-1, the Raptors are looking to make history and win Canada’s first NBA title ever.

And in case you didn’t know, Raptors ticket prices are out of control.

The minimum amount you’re looking to dish out is about $2,600 for a single upper bowl ticket.

Since this is a historical game, and the ticket prices are a little above average (as Zoolander would say), here are some things you can get for a cost of one ticket to tonight’s NBA Finals game.

Rent a Toronto apartment for a month

In a city that’s known to have the highest rental costs in Canada, everyone constantly complains about how expensive Toronto is for rent. BUT, one ticket to tonight’s game can get you a one month rental at a Liberty Village condo. It’s a one-bedroom, but sorry, no parking…

Buy 2,633 McDonald’s ice cream cones

Just in time for summer, McDonald’s is introducing $1 ice cream cones. And for the cost of a ticket, you can basically be covered for a few cones a day.

Fly to Sydney, Australia, and back with change to spare

Google Flights

If you have $2,600 to spend, you could get a return flight to Sydney, Australia, and have almost a grand left for lots of Aussie activities. (Like surfing and eating Aussie pies.) A return ticket is about $1,600 – which doesn’t even get you standing room tickets for the game tonight.

You could buy a car instead of a game ticket. A car. An older model, but should still take you from point A to B. In fact, a 2002 Mercedez-Benz is cheaper than a ticket right now.

Buy 335 pre-rolled legal joints

Ontario Cannabis Store

You can have a pre-rolled joint for almost every day over the next year. And this is through the legal means.

Get a certificate in Content Marketing at York University

And last but not least, you can get certified in Content Marketing at York University for less than the cost of a Raptors ticket tonight.
