The Reason Why

Day 3 - Sunday

Jet lag's a bitch. Awake most of the night, finally dozed off around 6 ish. We both woke up around 11 (unheard of, even for me when I've had a few). Baseball was starting @ 1.20, still not sure how we were getting there or even where Wrigley Field was(other than North of us). Fortunately not far at all on the Red Line & a station was only a couple of blocks away.

We watched the game in what's known as a rooftop or skybox. Skybox on Sheffield is the one we went to.

Very enjoyable afternoon, ticket price included all you could eat & drink (so we did). Again the weather was turned on for us, high 20's & a bit of cloud cover. Cubs won 12 - 1. Crowd of just under 40,000 at the game. Not a game I could go to regularly though.


After we left we headed down to one of the must do's on the journey Buddy Guy's Legends for a quiet ale & some live blues. Awesome place, sensational memorabilia & photos. I could quite easily frequent it daily, but for the small problem of living so bloody far away.
Going back on Thursday night to see Jimmie Vaughan & the Tilt-a-Whirl Band. 



Also added to the T-shirt collection again...
