I recently had the oppurtunity to visit the "windy city." The major highlight for me was being at Wrigley Field watching the Cubs vrs. DBacks, even though DBacks lost, I loved every minute of being at the amazing field. Especially when we got to try the Chicago hot dog. It was yummy. They put everything imaginable on their hot dogs.. That is definatley the best part of MLB games. Tony Romo threw the ceremonial first pitch and sung "take me out.." for which he was booed by everyone at the field...Also I strange hooded man jumped from the outfield stands in the 7th inning and just started running around the outfield.. It was hilarious watching the aged security guards chase him down and then just tackle him...
Now for some Wrigley Field history...Wrigley Field is the 2nd oldest major league baseball field behind Bostons Fenway park (which hopefully I will be visiting in October). Some of the historic moments in baseball were at this field such as: Babe Ruth's "called shot" where Ruth pointed to a bleacher location during the 1932 World series and the next pitch he hit a homerun. (I learned all about Wrigley on top of the Sears Tower, for which I could go on & on..) Oh and did I mention what great seats we had-right behind home plate- Thanks Sara and Boo! They are always so willing to hook a sista up! We love them. Trini & I had a blast, but by the end of the week I was more than ready to come home to my husband & child/dog.
