Posted by Gary Dzen, Boston.com Staff September 22, 2008 06:50 PM

Apparently the trophy can get there from here.

Tony Allen, Leon Powe, and Brian Scalabrine will accompany the Larry O’Brien Championship Trophy to a rally being held in Portland on Wednesday September 24, Maine's governor John E. Baldacci announced today. Also joining the trophy at events in Portland and Orono will be Celtics legend JoJo White and Team President Rich Gotham.

The trophy will first be on display at The Expo in Portland. Doors will open at 10:30 a.m. with events scheduled to begin at 11:30 a.m. Following a short rally at noon, fans will be invited to see the trophy from noon to 2 p.m.

From 4:30 p.m. to 6:30 p.m., the trophy will be on display at the Alfond Arena on the University of Maine campus in Orono.

Mainers are encouraged to bring a camera to both events for photos with the trophy and Celtics personnel. Both events are free and open to the public.
