A video of Easton\u0027s Edmonton Oilers Zamboni Halloween costume had gone viral in the fall
“Every year we’ve been doing different Halloween costumes for Easton,” Oetting said.
Oetting, a Leafs fan growing up, switched allegiance to the Wayne Gretzky-era Oilers after an aunt and uncle moved to Edmonton. National media outlets also started calling and Easton and his costume were featured in several TV and online reports across North America.Then CIBC’s sponsorship director contacted the family to set up a November video meet with McDavid, a brand ambassador for the bank. Later, they set up the in-person meeting in Toronto.“I don’t think he fully understood what was going on, but he knew it was pretty special. He had a big smile on his face the whole time.
Next day, when the family went to the game with a sign identifying Easton as the “Zamboni kid,” a security official recognized him.
