It will be a packed house Thursday night at Rogers Square as fans gather to cheer on the Toronto Raptors as they attempt to clinch their first NBA Championship in Game 6.

Gates to the Tidal League Block Party are scheduled to open at 8:30 p.m. at the Nova Centre on Grafton Street.

Lineups to get in to the party Monday were long, and the site quickly reached capacity. Fans wanting to support the Raptors spilled over onto Sackville Street.

Tipoff is at 10 p.m. and if you're not near a TV, you can listen to the radio broadcast on NEWS 95.7
