CHICAGO (WBBM NEWSRADIO) — Plans are still being worked out for the city to celebrate Chicago’s latest sporting champions, the WNBA’s Chicago Sky.
Mayor Lori Lightfoot called the Chicago Sky championship is an amazing story, telling 670 The Score there will be a rally for the Sky tomorrow in Millennium Park.
“I really encourage everyone to come. My daughter’s already lobbied. She’s taking a day off school to be able to be there so I think it’ll be a good crowd,” Lightfoot said.
Lightfoot was at the game when the Sky won it all.
“What I saw a lot last night was a lot of dads bringing their daughters to watch these incredible women play at the height of their talent and, they’re going to be little girls that were in that crowd last night or saw it on TV that are going to remember this for the rest of their lives,” she continued.
The mayor said hopefully the Sky’s championship shows those little girls they can achieve great things.
She also added the Sky championship couldn’t have come on a better day after the Chicago Bears lost again to the Green Bay Packers.
