Don't listen to him/her. Your memories and life experience will remember being around everyone if we win, and you won't remember this 100$ or 200$ in 20 years. Hell you probably won't remember it by next year.

 

I was thinking about getting the pocket picked - money isn't nearly the hassle that lost cc and ID are. But I can understand the other side of the go to Wrigleyville argument.

 

You thought I shouldn't go because I might get my pocket picked (literally)?!

 

And/or figuratively. I think it's a legitimate concern - thieves are opportunists.

I'm kind of a homebody to begin with, but watching a high tension game whilst packed like a sardine into a room full of drunk people sounds like abject misery to me. You'd have to pay me $100 to endure that.

 

But that's why you're drinking

The odds of that actually happening are extremely long.

Personally, among the possible bad things that could happen in a extremely large crowd of emotional fans, being pickpocked is like right ahead of 'being barrelled over by a police horse' as things I'm least worried about.

Sounds like Charlie Sheen may be throwing the first pitch tonight. Or maybe just attending?

 

I saw on Twitter Thome is throwing it out to Hafner. Sheen is probably just gonna be outside the park taking pictures or something goobery

Do you guys know what the deal is with the wrigley bars tonight?

 

Cover charges still? On one hand, it's a road game...on the other, it's horsefeathering game 7

I thought someone said a page or 2 back that there were $100 covers

Are these actual covers or is it "mandatory $100 open bar". Because those are two vastly different things.

Here's hoping that he's an injury sub for Andrew Miller.

I want everyone except Cubs fans to be disappointed that this is a low-stress, low-excitement thrashing

 

Let's make this is a very unentertaining whooping in the Cubs favor and the game is an extended victory lap

Ugh, not a fan of the WBC.

 

Me neither. Sounds like a great way for a player to risk getting injured before the regular season. Also a team-building killer for ST.

Don't like no meaningful players go to the WBC anymore? Didn't the American team basically have like minor leaguers/role-players at best on the roster last time?

Hosmer played 1B for the US while Rizzo was relegated to team Italia.

The WBC is a ton of fun, you joyless cranks.

 

We can't all be unicorns and rainbows all the time like you. But we can strive.
