Breaking News: Detroit Goes Towel-less


DETROIT -- The Detroit Tigers will not hand out rally towels for at least the first two games of the World Series at Comerica Park, team officials said.

The hanky-sized towels are a popular playoff accessory that fans whirl in the air to cheer on their team. Fans attending the opening games in Detroit will get some sort of World Series souvenir, but officials haven't said what it will be.

"The in-park giveaway for the World Series is determined by Major League Baseball," said Joel Scott, a Tigers spokesman. "They (league officials) have items that were going to be distributed no matter where the World Series was at."


Plus...this wiki on Jay Mariotti is funny.

EXCELLENT. Those towels always give me nightmares of the Twins, circa 1987.
