Anaheim Angels World Series Celebration Kicks Off With Disneyland Resort Pep Rally
Fan celebrations will begin at the Disneyland(R) Resort as the American League pennant-winning Anaheim Angels head for the first time ever to the World Series.
Throughout the span of the Series, the Disneyland Resort will be saluting the Angels with great events to rally fans both locally and around the nation.
The fanfare kicks off on Friday, Oct. 18 at 6:30 p.m. through 9 p.m. with the Official Anaheim Angels World Series Pep Rally at Downtown Disney(R). Fans are invited to this free event to cheer the Angels on to victory before the first game of the series. Throughout the evening, guests can participate in baseball trivia for a chance to win bats and balls signed by Angels players.
The first 10,000 guests in attendance will receive specially created halo hats available only at the pep rally and Thunder Sticks to show their support for the home team.
To share the excitement with the rest of the country, ESPN will broadcast the Baseball Tonight World Series Preview Special Live From Disney's California Adventure at 4 p.m. PT. During the one-hour program, host Karl Ravech and analysts Peter Gammons and Harold Reynolds will preview the series with a focus on the starting pitching rotations, review this season's top "Web Gems," present a feature on Barry Bonds' season and showcase a montage of the year's highlights.
For the remainder of the series, from Saturday, Oct. 19 through Sunday, Oct. 27, fans are welcomed back to Downtown Disney where Jumbo Tron screens will broadcast the games and live-band entertainment will keep the party going.
Live television and radio remotes at Downtown Disney are also planned for the run of the series, and guests are encouraged to stop by and watch their favorite radio personalities in action.
Adding a festive touch to "The California Series," the "A's" in the California sign at Disney's California Adventure(TM) will be painted red and adorned with halos, and banners saluting the two California teams will hang from the Golden State Bridge at Disney's California Adventure entrance.
In commemoration of this premier event, special Angels merchandise including apparel, Rally Monkeys and Angels wings and halos will be available for purchase at Disneyland, Disney's California Adventure and Downtown Disney.
