The city of Chicago will host a celebration of the Chicago Sky WNBA champions on Tuesday at Millennium Park, Mayor Lori Lightfoot said.

The parade will start at Wintrust Arena at 11 a.m., with the team headed north up Michigan Avenue to the Jay Pritzker Pavilion in Millennium Park for a celebration starting at noon. Fans are encouraged to cheer along the parade route — and the weather should cooperate, with temperatures in the 70s.

Millennium Park will open at 8 a.m. on Tuesday and the Pritzker Pavilion will open at 10 a.m., according to the city.


if someone wanted to shit on bandwagon fans this would create some great content when you interview "fans" and ask them how many players can they name and they cant even name Candance parker

that is a likely scenario. 1 of 2. No one will know shit, or the crowd at the parade/celebration will be very limited.

That parade route is going to be embarrassingly empty. Why would the city do that? Have a celebratory rally where you can bunch all the well wishers together in one space.

I think its great that they won. Congrats. Just because they aren't popular doesn't mean they didn't accomplish something.

I’m looking forward to one of those ridiculous crowd estimates, like when the Blackhawks apparently drew all of Chicagoland to watch Corey Crawford attempt to walk up stairs without falling down.

A 45 degree Tuesday night Sox game in April is likely to have more fans than this parade/rally will.

Oh, now there is a large gathering of people.....and its a school with all the kids out in front.

Yup. Doing a quick search on Twitter, it seems that the crowd at Millennium Park won't be as embarrassing, but having the parade drive around in front of three dozen people is about what I expected.

They should have had the parade the same day as the next schedule looting. Better crowds.

Nice of WGN to give it wall to wall coverage. Can you imagine the behind the scenes discussion that led to that decision.

:lol: Really. WGN is also all news from like 4am- 10am, and news again from 11am-1pm so its not like they bumped Maury or something.

my 2 daughters when they were in like 3rd and 4th grade played upward basketball. like basically non comptetive garbage basketball league. but they had fun just running around. which is not fine for me, but wife told me it was fine for me.

we came home one day and i saw that a wnba game was on. i was like hey girls lets watch this and see what they do. they decided to go upstairs and literally play barbies instead. that was probably the only 10 minutes of wnba i've ever watched.
