If the rain across the Midwest has got you down and you’ve been thinking about putting together a little weekend getaway, the Myrtle Beach Pelicans have got you covered. As though the Grand Strand itself isn’t enough to lure you in, the opportunity to see Eloy Jimenez and other rising prospects is a pretty nice sweetener. Still not convinced? Okay, there’s more.
The Pelicans will be holding a Cubs-a-Palooza weekend June 23-25 that will include an appearance by the World Series trophy, along with former Cubs Andre Dawson and Bill Buckner. They’ve even got a little something for those of you who dig funky tchotchkes and postgame fireworks.
