Sorry man, I thought I was done with this post but it just doesn't make sense to me so I'm going to try to make sense of it:

You would never be obstructive to anybody's experience at a live game and you don't think it's good to do that.

You would take pleasure in a person "like me" (who you have never met) asking you to sit down.

After that person asks you to sit down and you don't, whatever happens after that will result in that person and his child being escorted out of the stadium, and then that person's child is then left behind to watch what happens?

This doesn't even make sense as a threat, or even a poem.

The Winman, are you just mad because your sarcasm meter is broken?

Are you really this dumb? Who said I would take pleasure or welcome you in trying to to make me sit down. Just pointing out to see what happens if you think you're going to make them sit down. Why would the person asked to be escorted out before they started something of physical nature C'mon, it really not that hard to understand.

You're the idiot on here telling another poster that it would not be a good idea to stand or else.
If I was at a game and knew you were there and I could obstruct your view, I for then would stand.

So you would only stand if it meant you were obstructing the view of someone trying to enjoy the game in their seat. Got it.

Make sure you have on at least two pairs of long johns under your jeans/pants. Also wear at least thermal socks or two pairs of decently thick socks. Water proof boots are real nice too. On top, at least two-three really warm shirts, and something to cover your face if it's hairless. I wear a skull cap as well as a warm winter hat on my head. Then I have a pair of nice deerskin gloves, and hand warmers don't hurt. If you plan on sneaking anything into the game, crotching a plastic flask works every time.

So how cold is really cold at Soldier Field? I'm trying to get an idea of what temperature it would have to be to wear that many layers ... :)

It's not cold if you drink a shit load of Jameson before hand.

Well that probably helps Bww but ... what about having to keep going to the washroom afterwards?

Ah okay, that helps Tjodalv, thanks. It's 10F at my place right now which isn't too bad ... but factor a wind in and that you're sitting in one spot for so many hours it could get pretty uncomfortable.

I don't recommend it.

You hold it for the whole game and then piss on someone's car in the parking lot. It's the Chicago way.

Ive been at games where the wind chill put it in the negatives. Many games I've gone to were under 20 degrees. If you're going to be outside for 9-10 hours in that, you better dress warm.

Wimps!!! Dress warm, dress warm!!!!!!

In my day we didn't have all these fancy coats and warming devices. You went out there and braved the cold in a long sleeved dress shirt

I'd avoid all of this altogether and just get an usher and say, "Hey, this thick-headed hick won't sit down."

That's the humidity because of the lake right? We have the same issues here with Georgian Bay. Mind you I think it gets a lot colder here in Ontario. Yes that's right Bww ... it's cold here too. :)
