A statue of Harry Caray...Hey, if the moon was made of spare ribs would you eat it (SNL skit)
Me and Josh in our seats.
A view of the field from our seats. Did you know that the buildings around Wrigley have bleachers on top of them so people can watch the game but not have to buy a ticket...crazy
Pujols striking out...he didn't do much else during the game.
The weekend was packed w/ loads of fun. Josh and I went to Chicago by train on Friday to watch the Cardinals vs Cubs. Our train left around 7 and was packed. We got into Union Station around 10:45 so we got a bite to eat then headed for the L (subway). It was interesting figuring out how much money to put on our ticket for the L..of course we didn't put enough on there and had to put more on for the way back, but we managed and made it to Wrigley Field. It was pretty stuffy in the stadium (there were over 40,000 people there) but our seats were awesome and we enjoyed every minute of it. Josh even bought Mallory a Cubs teddy bear (even though he hates the Cubs and loves the Cardinals). Unfortunately the Cardinals lost but we had a great time. After the game we stopped in one of the many shops back to the L and bought ourselves some Wrigley Field t-shirts. Then we stood in line like a herd of cows waiting to get to the L...it was absolutely crazy. We finally made it onto the L and back to Union Station just in time to get in yet another line for the train back to Macomb. I was so amazed that we didn't have time to do anything else. I was at least hoping we would be able to go to the Sears Tower or Navy Pier. Maybe next time. Josh is already planning another trip to a different stadium next year (he's hoping for Fenway Park).
