The Phillies Red October Bus has returned. The more the Phillies win, the more they advance. They more they advance, the more stops on this bus. You can get rally towels, and other Phillies swag as well as meeting the Phillies Ball Girls . Special guests are there as well.
Here is where the bus will be this weekend.
Thursday, October 3: Red October Rally Hosted by SportsRadio 94WIP at Chickie’s and Pete’s
- The celebration continues during an all-day Red October Rally hosted by SportsRadio 94WIP at Chickie’s and Pete’s, 1526 Packer Avenue, in South Philadelphia from 6:00 a.m. – 7:30 p.m.
- Festivities include an all-day remote live broadcast with SportsRadio 94WIP radio hosts, as well as Phillies guests, special announcements and lots of postseason fun throughout the day.
Friday, October 4 – Postseason Block Party at Garage Fishtown, Featuring a New “Phillies Daycare” Mural AND the Rally for Red October Bus
- The Red October Rally Bus is making its final pit stop before the NLDS at this special outdoor event for fans of all ages, being held 5:00 – 7:00 p.m., outside Garage (100 East Girard Avenue), in the Fishtown neighborhood of Philadelphia.
- Phillies special guests, who will be aboard the double-decker bus, will join fans in taking photos of an exciting new mural on Garage depicting giant images of players Alec Bohm, Brandon Marsh and Bryson Stott, affectionately known as the “Phillies Daycare.” Also onsite will be muralist Jimmy McMenamin, the artist from Philadelphia-based Glossblack who created the new Fishtown landmark.
- Also in celebration, neighborhood restaurants and businesses will be offering “Phillies Specials,” and Garage will donate a portion of its proceeds that evening to the Alec Bohm Foundation, with the Fishtown District also matching all donations.
