Mohegan Sun will host four days of exclusive autograph signings beginning April 15th
Last year, Mohegan Sun featured an exclusive week-long Massachusetts themed Signings & Sightings series that hosted star-studded personalities like Lenny Clarke, Dwight Evans and Bill Walton.  This spring, Mohegan Sun is doing it again with a great new lineup of celebrities, set to kick off on Friday, April 15th and continuing on through Monday, April 18th.  The signings will take place on the Spin Street Stage in The Shops at Mohegan Sun and will feature WEEI radio personality and former Red Sox player Lou Merloni, Hall of Famer and Celtics great Dave Cowens, New England Patriots Hall of Famer Andre Tippett and Boston Bruins great, Terry O’Reilly. All Signings & Sightings events are free and open to the public. 
LOU MERLONI, FRIDAY, APRIL 15TH, 3:00PM – 4:00PM
Framingham, Massachusetts own, Lou Merloni, is a former college baseball standout for Providence College who still holds several single-season and career records for the now-defunct Friars baseball team.  Also a Cape League Hall of Famer, Merloni joined his hometown team, the Boston Red Sox in 1998 and remained with the organization through 2003.  After his playing days, Merloni stayed in the Boston scene by becoming a regular guest on various WEEI sports radio shows, most notably “The Big Show” with host Glenn Ordway.  His insight, knowledge and candor on all sports, especially baseball, is one of the main factors that contributed to him recently being named the regular co-host with Mike Mutnansky on the all-new “Mut & Merloni,” show which airs weekdays from 10:00am – 2:00pm.
