The day after Harry died, a Philadelphia Phillies fan started a petition on Facebook seeking support for a statue to be erected in Kalas’ honor and memory. They’re working to raise $80,000 to build the memorial Harry deserves and will present it as a gift to the Phillies once it’s complete. They’re over 25% of the way there.
On Friday April 23rd, a party will be thrown in Harry’s honor at McFadden’s at Citizens Bank Ballpark to raise money for the statue. The festivities start at 7:30 and Phillies-D’backs game will be on the TVs at 9:40. Tickets are $10 in advance and you must be 21 years old or over to attend. Here’s what’s on offer:
