Parade today for the World Champions, Philadelphia Phillies!

The biggest celebration in years will begin noon at 20th and Market , going towards South of Broad Street and end at the sports complex that houses Lincoln Financial Field and Citizens Bank Park.

Parking will be limited, so if you can take SEPTA or PATCO to the city, that would be your best bet. Also get out there early. I was driving to work this morning and already saw people heading down there.

If you planned on attending, behave yourself don't mess it up for everyone else! This is a time to celebrate this city victory, not to act like a fool. Yeah..... I said it!
