Anyone know an anti-rain dance?

I'm about to head out for a whirlwind trip north to Philadelphia, the sole purpose of which is to go to game 3 of the World Series tomorrow night. Except the weather forecast for tomorrow is basically saying a lot of rain. I am going to be very, very unhappy if the game gets rained out...

Also, Saturday is the city-wide Election Day dress-rehearsal for the Obama campaign. We do not want rain! Argh!

Do you get to go to the rescheduled game if it's rained out on Saturday? How does rescheduling work for the World Series, when FOX is probably calling more shots than MLB (and certainly than the Phillies)?

If it's rained out on Saturday, games 3-5 all get pushed back 1 day. I've seen conflicting reports about what happens to the tickets, but the ticket will be good for one of those games. If it's game 3 on Sunday night I might see if I can change my return flight to an early flight Monday morning. However that would probably be expensive and I'd get very little sleep Sunday night.

Everything I've read says that a rainout will push all three games back a day - 3 on Sunday, 4 on Monday, 5 on Tuesday.

I was at the rain game in 1993 (game 3?), though I don't remember much of it. It was very wet.

World Series > Sleep.
