Some fans feel the Toronto rapper can be a jinx
Drake is not only one of the most recognized and respected rap artists today, he's also a huge sports fan.
Should the surging Toronto Blue Jays encourage the rapper to attend games down the stretch?
Perhaps not, when one considers Drake's history of supporting sports teams and athletes.
Remember the Kentucky Wildcats' undefeated run heading into the NCAA March Madness tournament last season?
So did Kentucky, who saw their bid to become national champions end against the Wisconsin Badgers in the Final Four, with the one and only Drake in attendance.

The Toronto rapper claimed another heavily favoured victim on Friday, as he was present and showing his support for Serena Williams during her shocking semifinals defeat against Roberta Vinci.
Drake's poor sports fandom track record is not limited to just heavy favourites, however.
Who could forget Drizzy's open support of his hometown Toronto Raptors in the playoffs against the Washington Wizards?
For those keeping score, the Nets comfortably dispatched the Raptors in a four-game sweep.
If that is not enough proof for you, consider this.
Here's "the cursed one" sharing a moment with Seattle Seahwaks quarterback Russell Wilson.
It turns that Seattle's Super Bowl loss last season can't be blamed on head coach Pete Carroll's call, or Wilson's throw, after all.
So what do you say, is Drake the sports fan nobody wants?
Should he stay away from the Jays?
