Dean Angelo was just another fan at the Rogers Centre during Game 1 of the ALDS on Oct. 4, cheering on the Blue Jays. But by the time he got home and opened TikTok, he had become something else entirely: a viral sensation.

One video captioned simply “Bro is huge,” shows him seated behind home plate — stoic, muscular and impossible to miss. It has racked up more than 530,000 likes and nearly five million views. Others dubbed him an “absolute unit” as the internet scrambled to identify the guy behind home plate.

According to Google Trends, searches for “jacked jays guy” and “jacked guy” began rising in Canada on Oct. 8 and spiked on Oct. 13 and Oct. 20 — the same night the Blue Jays clinched their first World Series appearance since 1993.
