Nightfall 871 Report post Posted June 5, 2008 wish we could be there... to all those lucky people living in Michigan!!!! boo-hoo for us! I believe that FSD will be televising the parade for those of us who can't make it. I am tempted to go because its my birthday, but man, its 2.5 hour drive away for me to go since I live in GR.

StevieY9802 6 Report post Posted June 5, 2008 Question though, when is the Stanley Cup Celebration then? You know the one where all the players are at the JLA and each of them go up and talk. It's usually always the day before the parade, it can't be tomorrow can't it? This is my question too. My guess is that this thing will be either Friday night or Saturday night, most likely Saturday. If any season ticket holders have info that would be great. I have my dad asking around too. Trying to get tickets to go since I won't be able to go to the parade. Already taking Monday and Tuesday off. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I am tempted to go because its my birthday, but man, its 2.5 hour drive away for me to go since I live in GR. Hope that's true. I want to see, and there's no other way to do that from Florrida.

Yzrmn19 0 Report post Posted June 5, 2008 For those of us who have never attended the Stanley Cup parade before and are maybe coming from out of town, I know I would really appreciate some tips from those of you who have done this before. Any info on good places to park, best places to view the parade, how early to get there, how long the festivities last etc would be really appreciated!

ILuvMaltby18 0 Report post Posted June 5, 2008 I so wish they would have the parade on Saturday! More people would be able to attend. I cannot get the day off of work I did go to the 2002 parade, and it was incredible. For those of you lucky enough to be going, have a great time!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I am thinking I am going to buy a locker room shirt or one of those shirts with the roster on the back (although it is BLACK and that doesn't bode well) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

johnnyoski 0 Report post Posted June 5, 2008 I'll be there with the wife and kids tomorrow. This Free Press link has a nice map of the parade route showing some parking possibilities. It also says the mayor will be there...I'm sure he will have to come out with Stevie Y or someone else so he doesn't get unmercifully booed! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
