Made it. The Metra and red line were just perfect. Stayed in Itasca instead of Schaumburg.

Three beers in now from Murphys to the bleachers in the heat. People complaining about it but the LSU/UF day games in Gainesville have prepared my son and me well.

Murphy’s bleachers today

View from our seats in the bleachers.

Went to 2 games in May. Was a lot of fun, especially seeing the cubs lose twice, first to the white Sox and then to my Braves.

But seriously great area and great stadium. Had lots of fun.

chicago Dog and a cold beer is hard to beat at Wrigley.

My first game at Wrigley was the game where Rizzo jumped up on the rolled up tarp in foul territory and made that awesome catch against the Brewers. Made SC #1 play.

Awesome experience.

That’s awesome!! Son and I are hoping for a similar ending to what we had in Coors Field last year...

Jealous. We went up last year for the Yankees series. Came home without seeing a W

But Chicago is a blast. Wrigley field is so damn beautiful.

As a first-timer myself I would definitely say Murphy’s Bleachers beforehand and seats in the bleachers for the game. Tons of fun in here.

Be sure to hit the Cubby Bear after the game. Good times.
