I was forced to go to a Sox game a few weeks ago and drank myself Special person before I went in. I think I fit in better that way.

Chicago teams have won championships in all four major sports in the last 25 years or so.



All four championship trophies will be at US Cellular Field tonight.

Just read that it's supposed to be good weather tonight. We're playing the Yankees, it's a Friday night, should be fun!!

Baseball is BORING!





Very cool start to the Sox game on TV tonight. Stanley Cup is by far the COOLEST Trophy in Professional Sports. Hands down no competition.





DROP THE PUCK!!!

Try it sometime. I grew up a devoted Cubs and Sox fan and when the Sox went to Sportsvision around 1981 I couldn't follow them anymore and could only follow the Sox. But today I'm back to supporting both teams again. Sox park is really really nice, great food, easy access, clean, etc. Try it.[/quote]

No can do.



I grew up a Cubs fan and will ALWAYS be one....regardless of how they play. You CAN'T be a fan of both teams....it's unnatural.

Me trying to end you on the ice isn't fair, as it is to close to your home territory. That would be like like you trying to end me by eating more hotdogs. Or having more gas. Ain't gonna happen.

Who Went to the Hawks/Sox game on 8/27?

Well I attended the game on 8/27. Here are the pros/cons of the evening:



Pros:

1) Sox won, nice weather, Friday evening

2) Hot women everywhere that night. It seemed like it was ladies night or something.



Cons:

1) Left 2 hours before the game but due to massive car accident on I-55 we missed the first inning and took us 2 hours to get in. No parade, no viewing of the trophies.

2) Nothing about the evening seemed to be Blackhawks related which was disappointing. Yeah some fans wore their Blackhawks jerseys and there were a couple non-interesting items on the scoreboard but that was it.

3) The note I had from the Sox said that STH would be eligible for prizes that evening however nothing was ever given away that I'm aware of. Nothing announced on the scoreboard and when I asked a Hawks employee at one of the Hawks booths he told me I had to sign up for some Training Camp package to be in the drawing - he was clueless and I walked away. Did anyone receive any prizes?

4) Overall it was a disappointing event as I didn't feel there was really anything Blackhawks related to the evening. What did you think?

Why would they pick a Friday night with the Yankees in town?

That game is going to sell out without a doubt.

Why not the Royals or A's where maybe they draw 15-17K?

I went, did the parade and everything. Walking on the field was pretty cool, but since im not really a baseball fan, I feel like I didnt get as much out of it as a true baseball fan would.



The festivities before the parade were pretty neat. Got to meet Q and get a picture with the Cup, Mikita and Ab McDonald were there at an autograph table. Beach, Skille, DiDomenico, and Bollig were there wandering around. Got to meet them and shake their hands.



Overall, id say the experience was pretty cool, im glad I took advantage.

What level were you sitting on? I was in the 500s and there was absolutely no Blackhawk activity up there besides a few fans in red jerseys. But, no players, no autographs, nothing. The thing that gets me is why they advertised prizes be given away to Hawk STH and then I didnt' see any.
