Move your head, dammit !!!
I'm not usually a sports watcher but I couldn't pass up the opportunity to take in a live sporting event.
Fortunately, my schedule allowed me to take in a baseball game in September 2003. The White Sox were in town and, better yet, at the time, were heading the AL Central (which was soon to change).
I had no trouble buying a ticket on-line or collecting it at the park.
When I got to Comiskey Park (sorry US Cellular Field) I was taken by the energy and enthusiasm of the crowd. To make it perfect, it was 'free hat' night and there were fireworks after the game. Talk about falling lucky!
A victory for the Sox rounded of a truly wonderful experience for me.
I heartily recommend any visitor (particularly overseas visitors) who has the opportunity to take in a game to do so.
Equipment: A jacket or sweater is usually adviseable for night games.
Directions: At Sox/35th on the Red Line
Theme: Sports Watching
