CHAMPAIGN -- The Chicago I FUND
is set to host its annual Illini Day at Wrigley Field on July 7,
when the Cubs host the Pittsburgh Pirates at 1:20 p.m. Tickets are
on sale now for an exclusive rooftop party with Fighting Illini head
basketball coach John Groce.
|
 When he's not at the rooftop, Groce will participate in a pair of
events, throwing out the first pitch and singing "Take Me Out to the
Ball Game" during the seventh-inning stretch.
Tickets are $105 each and include all food and beverages. To
order tickets, complete the online registration at
go.illinois.edu/illiniday. Illini fans will want to act fast as
tickets are extremely limited.
The I FUND also will host a pregame reception at Rebel Bar &
Grill in Wrigleyville, 3462 N. Clark St., with Groce scheduled to
attend at 11:30 a.m. Illini fans are encouraged to head to Rebel for
a postgame party as well. Admission is free to both the pre- and
postgame events at Rebel.
