The family of Pete Rose will host a 14-hour memorial visitation at Great American Ball Park on Sunday, Nov. 10, from 7 a.m. to 9 p.m.
This free event is open to the public and will be a time for those who admired and loved the “Hit King” to come together, honor his incredible legacy, and say their goodbyes before the family of Pete Rose lays him to rest privately.
Guests must enter the ballpark through the main gates at Crosley Terrace (Gate A) and follow directed queue lines to the visitation area, which overlooks the field from the main concourse. Guests will exit the ballpark via Gate B.
Out of respect for the family, photography and video recording will not be allowed inside the visitation area.
Guests wishing to bring flowers, memorabilia or other mementos honoring Pete are asked to leave them at the Pete Rose statue on Crosley Terrace.
The Reds Hall of Fame & Museum presented by Dinsmore will have free admission on Sunday during normal operating hours from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m.
Excerpt from Fawn Rose Statement on behalf of the Rose Family, released Oct. 24
“Baseball was Dad’s greatest passion, and he loved playing the game for the fans. We know that bringing ‘Charlie Hustle’ home to Cincinnati, the city where he was born and where his legendary career began, is the perfect way to honor his love and devotion to the fans.”
