WISoxFan Posted October 27, 2005 Share Posted October 27, 2005 Any word from the mayor's office yet? I want a nice parade down Western that lasts until St. Pats!

KeithFranklin Posted October 27, 2005 Share Posted October 27, 2005 According to the radio this morning they are saying Monday. Monday sucks. It is Halloween and my kids have Halloween parties at School and of course my wife since she is helping with the party wont be happy to be helping and not having her kids there. Why it isnt tomorrow or Saturday I dont know. I am sure others are in the same boat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greg Hibbard Posted October 27, 2005 Share Posted October 27, 2005 And it was Brooks who said it, so I'm inclined to believe him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kalapse Posted October 27, 2005 Share Posted October 27, 2005 I love the fact that it's going to be a ticker tape parade, it just adds something special to it. I'm really thinking that this parade is going to help the whole thing sink in because right now I'm still in a state of disbelief. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johnny Posted October 27, 2005 Share Posted October 27, 2005 especially for a mayor that is a sox fan, it was probably all setup day one of the season Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigHurtHallofFame201? Posted October 27, 2005 Share Posted October 27, 2005 Any plans for a rally at Grant Park????I heard that earlier. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SouthSidePride05 Posted October 27, 2005 Share Posted October 27, 2005 Why have 2 celebration events? A parade and then a rally, especially if it's on different days, would draw much smaller crowds than if there was one giant celebration rally. The Bulls championship rallies were always on weekdays, and I remember not too many kids showed up, even though school was out for the summer. It was mostly adults & workers in downtown Chicago. Virtually everyone who works downtown shows up.. but if it's on a Saturday, a majority of them would probably stay in the suburbs, or wherever they live. I don't expect it to be the size of the Bulls rallies, probably a tenth of the size, I'm guessing 50,000. WE'll be able to see the stage better though!

bjm676 Posted October 27, 2005 Share Posted October 27, 2005 If it's on LaSalle, I couldn't ask for anything more. I'll go on my lunch break and bring my camera. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well the initial report was of a parade culminating in a rally at Grant Park...so I don't know...I want a parade and rally...I want to hear their words, not just see their faces.
