In 1994, “The Raptors” was one of ten contenders, in a contest to name the newly formed, Toronto NBA team.

The day the list of names was released, Joe was given the radio news assignment to ask people what their choice would be. The list included the names of animals like Hogs, Terriers and Beavers.
