TDubbs' idea of everyone getting a bleacher ticket actually seems to have the most merit, unless everyone wants to do a rooftop again.

That would certainly make it easier to fuck with Al.

Especially if we all got "Banned by BCB" shirts.

Can you throw tomatoes at someone during the game without getting the boot?

You can't even throw popcorn.

Mrs. Cubbieblue wants to know where I want to go to celebrate our 50th this June.  If I told her that I wanted to go sit in the bleachers at Wrigley, I know for certain that the marriage would end up shy of 50.
If I had known that I was going to live this long I would have taken better care of myself.   (Plagerized from numerous other folks)

A few of us in the Shoutbox were throwing around August 29th as a possible date for this year's Desipio Outing.  It's a Saturday afternoon game (3:10pm) against the Mets.  I'm willing to start working on this, getting the rooftop and so on, unless I hear any objections from the Desipio crowd.  It'll probably be another $150/head kind of deal.  Anyone have any thoughts or objections?  If I don't hear them by tomorrow I'm going to start setting it up.

Is there a site where you can look up prices? I have to believe rooftop prices will be cheaper this year..

DPD.  This is where I'm going to start.

I may have to call each of them individually, which is fine.

You may want to check with the cubs also. I gotta think that there will be boxes available as well.

Just got back from Skybox on Sheffield.

Head and shoulders above that Brixen trash.

I had several brownies.

Despite how much everyone here hates my brother, he is doing a lot of the ticket sales from Wrigley Done Right, the rooftop down the right field line.  I've been there a couple times and it's a really good place.  The staff is pretty laid back and the food is good.  I could probably find a way to get a discount of some sorts depending on how many people will be going.
