The Jays lost to the Orioles, but at least fans got to soak up the unseasonably warm fall weather under an open dome: Storified by CTVNews.ca · Sun, Sep 28 2014 22:34:53

Some people took the end of the season pretty hard:
Somebody please hold me. I'm sad. The @BlueJays season is over. Meow. #BlueJays http://t.co/vIYtoi1VjIJose Meowtista
It's the most depressing day of the year....No more Blue Jays for many long months. I miss McGowan already #bluejaysKathlene Richards
It's like quickly ripping off a band-aid. #BlueJays

Great day at the #BlueJays game with my special lady @marielummiss and the best seats I have ever had at the dome http://t.co/WLDusI9CFHSeanQuinlan

As a token of appreciation (and to prepare for the chilly offseason weather in Toronto), warm hats with the Blue Jays logo were presented to the first 20,000 people at the Rogers Centre:
