“Teaming up with a renowned franchise like the Ottawa Redblacks is a significant milestone as we grow ToonieBet’s presence in Canada,” remarked Madmon.

ToonieBet will also sponsor the Sideline Club, providing field-level seating closest to the action.

“RNation is known for their high energy at TD Place, and this partnership aims to enhance the fan experience,” said Matthew Bennett, vice-president of corporate partnerships at the Ottawa Redblacks.

“We look forward to collaborating on unique activations that honor our fans and the rich tradition of Canadian football.”

ToonieBet and the Redblacks will host three pre-game street parties on Exhibition Way on game days, featuring a live DJ, games, and giveaways.

The partnership kicks off this Sunday (Aug. 30) with fan engagements.

ToonieBet also has a partnership with the Hamilton Tiger-Cats of the CFL, which was announced on June 22.

The Redblacks recently appointed CFL veteran Jim Popp as senior football adviser to improve their on-field performance, following the dismissal of vice-president Shawn Burke on Sunday (Aug. 23). Team president Adrian Sciarra had resigned six days prior.

The Redblacks have been part of the CFL since its inaugural season in 1958, with the Ottawa franchise established in 2014. The team’s history includes the folding of the Ottawa Rough Riders in 1996 (replaced briefly by the Ottawa Renegades from 2002-2005).
