Guide: How to spot American tourists in Toronto

Posted on July 11th, 2002 in my ramblings.

Even with the current state of garbage collection in Toronto, tourists are still here in droves. Since I work very close to the SkyDome and CN Tower, I see lots of tourists at street level. Here’s a quick guide on how to spot an American tourist in a crowd. (Not that I have anything against most Americans. This is just for fun, really.)

  • Men: often wearing t-shirts or hats related to 9/11, FDNY, or US Armed Forces. Baseball caps with the above subjects are a dead giveaway. Also, large Ray-Ban sunglasses.
  • Women: big hair, especially big frizzy hair. Skin-tight or spandex pants. Cigarettes.
