Pittsburgh Penguins Rally To Be Held In Market Square Friday

Pittsburgh Mayor Luke Ravenstahl and Allegheny County Executive Dan Onorato announced Thursday a Penguins Stanley Cup finals rally in Market Square at 12:00 noon on Friday, May 23.

The leaders called on all fans to "Pack the Square" and wear their black & gold as the Penguins get ready to face the Detroit Red Wings on Saturday for the first game of the Stanley Cup finals.

The Pens mascot and patrol girls will hand out rally gear, including white towels, posters, hats and "Deflate Detroit" signs.

Mayor Ravenstahl will lead Pens fans in a "Clipping of the Wings" ceremony followed by a public, high-stakes bet with Detroit's Mayor.
