Detroit Tigers fans are being presented with the chance to buy World Series banners. The official Tigers baseball team banners decorated the streets of downtown Windsor during the recent pro baseball championship. 100 banners at a price of $120 apiece, tax included, are available now.

“The World Series in Detroit was a great event and we are proud to have been a part of it,” said Mayor Eddie Francis. “These banners are cherished by fans on both sides of the border, and that’s a very good indication of the close ties that bind our two cities.”

“By celebrating the World Series, and before that Super Bowl XL,” added Mayor Francis, “Detroit and Windsor together are making themselves very well known to sports fan across the continent.”

Residents who are interested can contact the Mayor’s Office at Windsor City Hall by telephoning (519) 255-6315 or e-mailing mayoro@city.windsor.on.ca
