Detroit Tigers 1984 World Series Victory Parade and Rally, Tape 2

2015.008.100 U-Matic tape containing footage shot of the rally in Kennedy Square following the parade in celebration of the Detroit Tigers 1984 World Series victory. Radio personality Dick Purtan acts as the rally's master of ceremonies. From a position east of the stage, the camera pans and zooms to capture both the crowd, and the people on stage. The footage cuts several times during the event, and is continued on tape 2015.008.101. The video begins with Mayor Coleman A. Young, Governor James Blanchard, announcer Ernie Harwell, and team president Jim Campbell standing on stage, and Dick Purtan behind the podium. A marching band stands at the foot of the stage, and their drummer punctuates the crowd's cheers as Purtan speaks. Additional shots capture the mayor's press secretary Bob Berg, Young speaking to Tiger's manager Sparky Anderson, and Mayor Young waving to the crowd with a single tiger-striped glove. After a cut, Kirk Gibson appears to stage, shaking hands on the way to his seat, as the crowd cheers. Following, another cut, a conductor leads the band in a performance of John Williams' Olympic fanfare, as the camera pans across the crowd. Purtan then calls for the band to lead the crowd through "Take Me Out to the Ball Game." Purtan then begins naming Tigers players as they arrive on stage, including John Grubb, Dave Rozema, Howard Johnson, Ruppert Jones, Rusty Kuntz, Sid Monge, Randy O'Neal, Dan Petry, and Alan Trammell (which prompts the crowd to begin cheering "MVP"). Mayor Coleman A. Young then takes the podium. During his speech, he presents keys to the city to Sparky Anderson, Tom Monaghan, John Fetzer, and Alan Trammell, and reads a proclamation declaring 1984, "The Year of the Tigers." Trammell briefly speaks. Then governor James Blanchard presents a proclamation to Anderson, Monaghan, and Fetzer establishing it "Tigers Week." Erma Henderson of City Council then presents Anderson with a bouquet of flowers. Next, Monaghan gives a brief speech, as the crowd begins to chant "pizza!" After another cut, Sparky Anderson addresses the crowd. He is followed again by Alan Trammell. Finally Kirk Gibson is called to the podium, where he recreates his celebratory pose from Mary Schroeder's Detroit Free Press photo. The video are on a 3M MBU-18 U-Matic S tape, with a City of Detroit Department of Public Information Video Production label on its top. The tape is housed within a black plastic latching case.
