CHICAGO- A World Class City!

by GuitarStan - last update: Jan 4, 2008

Chicago....The Second City

My buddies from work and I (I'm on the far left).
My family and I have been to Chicago quite a few times and their is something always new to see and do. Great museums, restaurants, and entertainment. The last time I was there, it was with my buddies from work for a White Sox baseball game in 2006. In 2005 we went for a Cubs baseball game. We are in front of the Harry Carey bronze statue.
20 games back, day game with a beer......priceless

Chicago and Cubs Baseball

If you are a baseball fan and you are visiting Chicago a visit to Wrigley Field to see the Cubs play is a must. Purchase your tickets well ahead of your visit, they go fast! In this picture of Wrigley Field, the Cubs were out of first place by 20 plus games, yet the stands are full. They LOVE their Cubs in Chicago win or lose. Get to the game early and take a walk around the stadium to get a feel for it, it is in a residential area with many bars and restaurants mixed in which provides for a great time.

The sign says it all.........everyone loves the Cubs.
