Go Cubs Go

Time to catch up. It appears that I actually do have 1 reader out there, but that's still unconfirmed. They might have come in from Tim From Little Rock's Blog. If you don't know who that is you should check it out.

Last weekend we went to Chicago. I've been to Chicago probably 3 times now so this was not my first time. It was also my 4th Cubs game. I think this makes 3 in Wrigley and one at Cynergy Stadium however you spell it in Cincinnati, but I had never seen the Cubs win. It was 9 guys who made the pilgrimage for my buddy's bachelor party. We met a local at the Green Door who was a Cubs fan. He asked if we all had tickets so we said that 4 of us still hadn't. He went out to his car and came back with 4 tickets that he gave us for free. (face value $100 apiece) Then he tried to pay for our $100 tab at the bar! Q.E.D.: Cubs fans are the greatest fans there are.



I thought I would have pictures by now that I could post, but they have yet to surface. We had a crazy time in Chicago. The Cubs spanked the Phillies. We saw 5 home runs (3 by the Cubs) and they guy behind us made Cubs hats out of animal balloon balloons for us so we were in heaven.

One thing that was odd was the Cubby Bear was out of Leinenkugels. They didn't even have PBR or Old Style! How does a Cubs bar not have Old Style? It just doesn't seem right.

I wish I had more time, but I'm tired and have to go. I'll try and post some more pictures tomorrow.
