Linnwood Posted October 19, 2005 Share Posted October 19, 2005 QUOTE(LosMediasBlancas @ Oct 19, 2005 -> 09:42 AM) Will there be a pre WS rally? I heard on the radio that Daley doesn't want to jinx them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Controlled Chaos Posted October 19, 2005 Share Posted October 19, 2005 QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Oct 19, 2005 -> 12:15 PM) That would be awesome, but from the sounds of it, it isn't going to happen. I wish because I would definately go. The sox should open up the BP bar. Charge a cover and donate the money to Sox Charities Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sec159row2 Posted October 26, 2005 Author Share Posted October 26, 2005 someone I know on the Beverly Area Planning Commission has not heard of a western ave. victory parade... so this route seems unlikely, but I'm still working the rumor...

southsider17 Posted October 26, 2005 Share Posted October 26, 2005 QUOTE(sec159row2 @ Oct 19, 2005 -> 09:24 AM) I heard that the Chicago Police were already working out contingency plans for the victory parade (sorry to put the horse before the cart) to be held on Western Ave. along the exact same route as the southside irish parade 103rd to 111th... my source is a city worker with lots of cop buddies... it could be just a rumor I was just wondering if anyone else heard this??? If it happens it would be great but would the team shun the whole Chicago region like that... what about all the fans in addison sorry if this is perceived as starting a rumor... That would be so cool! I could walk there. But if they were to have it in a neighborhood and not downtown, I'd think they'd do it near the Cell, like in Bridgeport.

southsider17 Posted October 26, 2005 Share Posted October 26, 2005 QUOTE(Flash Tizzle @ Oct 19, 2005 -> 11:58 AM) That would be great if a potential victory parade were to run along Western Ave. I would only have to drive 15 minutes to get there. The overall atmosphere and public intoxication will exceed even the most rowdy St. Patricks Day parade. That's one reason I doubt it will be in Beverly. People here are already trying to crack down on the drunken revelry from the St. Pat's celebration. QUOTE(Queen Prawn @ Oct 19, 2005 -> 12:00 PM) That would be awesome if that happened if/when the Sox win - I could walk to it if it were there. Abouts where are you? I'm at 91st and Winchester.

Steff Posted October 26, 2005 Share Posted October 26, 2005 Good old BAPA... when I went to college we did a bunch of volunteer work for events that they planned. I ran in their little marathon thing a few years ago. And they have a cool music festival, iirc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RibbieRubarb Posted October 26, 2005 Share Posted October 26, 2005 IF there is reason for a parade it will be downtown ala the 85 bears. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpringfieldFan Posted October 26, 2005 Share Posted October 26, 2005 I just had a bad thought. Do you think maybe the Sox and/or Chicago will nix the idea of a parade simply for security reasons (i.e. the ever present threat of terrorism)? Security was awfully tight at the Cell so I am sure it is a high priority for any celebration. If they had a "contained" rally it would be easier to keep a security net around it. Not that I don't want a parade - I'm just saying... SFF Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The BAPA music thing is probably "Music Under the Stars" in August. The Memorial Day 10K is a fun event, too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
