Pictures allegedly taken at a downtown Toronto LCBO are going absolutely viral on social media this week in light of how hilarious — and timely, given current events — they are.A shopper perusing the offerings at the Manulife Centre location of the Crown retailer on Bloor Street claims to have spotted some peculiar product tags for one particular brand of wine: the line by Canadian hockey legend Wayne Gretzky. And they have some very convincing photo evidence to back it up.The viral post was removed from Reddit Tuesday, though the link still shows the hundreds of comments it racked up.The once-unanimously beloved Gretzky, as anyone who has been reading the news will know, has fallen out of favour in some camps recently due to his affiliation with Donald Trump, who considers the world-renowned athlete a close friend and "fantastic guy," as well as a supporter.As some fans disown Gretzky amid Trump's economic attack on Canada through tariffs and threats of a...
