At long last -- A Parade
options
 

It's been a crazy 24 hours, so I apologize for not blogging. I think we had enough coverage in the paper today for you to absorb.

Make sure to check out our special section tomorrow detailing the Phillies season.

For those of you not up to date on the particulars of the parade, here you go:

The procession is scheduled to start west of City Hall at 20th and Market around Noon. It will then proceed east to City Hall, before making a right turn onto Broad Street. The parade is supposed to arrive at the Sports Complex around 2 p.m. The ceremony inside Citizens Bank Park will last an hour, which means the whole shebang should be wrapping up around 3 p.m. Just in time for Halloween.

Should be a crazy day.

It's hard to believe baseball season is over. The city was buzzing today, as was expected.

Cole Hamels is going to be on Letterman tonight. Hollywood is going Hollywood, I guess.

^

I'll get back into the blogging habit tomorrow. Promise.

    Every few hours I keep stopping and I think, "is this really for real, did we really do it?" - Absolutely we did. Thanks, Phillies for the greatest baseball season in my lifetime.

    It was nice to see the ENTIRE region get together to celebrate this championship. I still don't fully believe it but I watched everything wall-to-wall so it just has to sink in. Fantastic job Phillies!
