Chicago, Bang, Bang!

Heading to The Windy City this weekend to enjoy the Red's vs the Cub's at Wrigley Field. Thought this would be the perfect match for such an occasion.

Got extra tickets?

You'll have a blast I'm sure. I love Wrigley, for all its dirty gritty falling-apartness.

Good for you... I used to live in the 'Nati and there was nothing like going down to the riverfront and enjoying a weekend... this was when I was kid, though.

Always enjoyed the fireworks on the 4th. Best display I've seen to this date.

Your reference came from Stripes.

Oh hell, I already changed my mind. After further reflection I think the classic Oyster bracelet seems to match the City of Big Shoulders.

The Oyster bracelet is a good choice. Heading to Chicago in August for a fun weekend as well. Enjoy the games.
