Watching the Chicago cubs game.
Return to DiscussionsWe love the cubs.
Whew, technically not a nudist subject, but how can you NOT discuss the Cubs these days? LOL
Back in the late 60's my father would snag tickets to a game once or twice a summer so we could go to Wrigley. Wrigley didn't have exploding scoreboard that the White Sox did, but they had the ivy all over and a whole different feel. Plus, the legacy of no lights.
He also found a great, safe place to park when driving around the neighborhood one day before a game. Some young girls were holding up signs and yelling quite aggressively for cars to park on their property. We took a look and it was a convent! We drove in and a nun in a habit was sitting on a stool with a wad of bills that could choke a horse, as the saying goes. Dad asked how much. She said whatever you'd care to donate. He gave her money and they stayed his parking garage, so to speak, for as long as he was still employed.
Watched them at Spring Training in AZ last two years, they looked good, but I'm a life long Dodger fan...so lets just say Go Blue!
My first ever baseball game I went to was the Dodgers visiting the Cubs at Wrigley Field. Don Drysdale was the pitcher!
