"We encourage all of our fans throughout the Chicagoland area to wear Cubbie Blue on Monday and celebrate with us in Daley Plaza," said Jay Blunk, Chicago Cubs Director of Marketing. "This year Cubs fans have proven once again they are the most loyal in professional sports. Monday's celebration is a tribute to them and the heroics of the 2007 Chicago Cubs."

Highlighting the afternoon's events are scheduled appearances from Governor Rod Blagojevich, Chicago Mayor Richard Daley and former Cubs playoff team representatives: Andy Pafko (1945), Tim Stoddard (1984), Mickey Morandini (1998) and Doug Glanville (2003). Cubs President John McDonough and Hall of Famer Billy Williams will also be in attendance. Wayne Messmer, the voice of Wrigley Field, will serve as the afternoon's emcee.

Fans in the postseason markets will celebrate the arrival of the 2007 Major League Baseball postseason and their club's chance to play for the 2007 World Series Championship title with the fourth annual "Rally Monday" on October 1. "Rally Monday" consists of fan celebrations staged by playoff bound clubs in their respective home markets in conjunction with Major League Baseball.

All "Rally Monday" events are open to the public, free of charge and will take place rain or shine.
