the score Live radio Broadcast: 2p– 6p
Toast Time: 5:30p
Fans are invited to join in the annual celebration of Harry Caray’s extraordinary life at Harry Caray’s Tavern Navy Pier on May 12 to honor the 24th anniversary of Harry’s passing. This year, we will be donating 100% of all Budweiser and Bud Light sales from all Harry Caray’s locations--RIVER NORTH, LOMBARD, ROSEMONT, MAG MILE, NAVY PIER and MIDWAY AIRPORT-- on Toast Day to the World Central Kitchen to help provide fresh meals to displaced Ukrainians. Harry himself grew up as an orphan and throughout his life raised money to support children in need.
Harry’s larger-than-life personality, catapulted him beyond a baseball broadcasting legend into mainstream pop culture, and has transcended life itself. A collection of extra-large people and objects will be on hand at the Toast to help commemorate Harry, including:
Chicago Cubs legends Ryne Sandberg and Ryan Dempster will lead the Toast at 5:30p with a rousing rendition of Harry’s favorite song, “Take Me out to the Ball Game.” Ryne and Ryan will be joined by Dutchie Caray, Tom Dore, Ron Kittle, George Wendt and others.
The Score’s Parkins & Spiegel Show will broadcast live from the Toast from 2p– 6p. Fans gathered for the Toast will be given larger-than-life Harry glasses at Toast time. Fans who aren’t able to join the ceremony at Harry’s can click the link below to use our app to virtually don Harry glasses and listen live on 670AM in the Chicagoland area or tune in online to join in and raise a glass to Harry from anywhere in the world.
We’ve also set up a link for anyone who would like to donate to World Central Kitchen in honor of Harry.
