Hot times in the big city

The Cubs game was a bit warm today

     OK, it was damn hot.  Sweat running down your back hot.  Not enough water in your bottle hot.  Don't sit near me hot.
     But it was a good game.
     A Cubs' win is always a good game.  We are 5-1 so far this year. 
     This is the first game I did not have a sweatshirt or coat.   Freeze of sweat, story of Wrigley.
     It was 92 at game time.  I don't know how umpires survive, being out there the entire time.  I would melt.
     So....enough words.  Pictures are worth 1,000 words.



Lightly battered  chicken tenders with honey butter....delicious and a big serving.

The Elephant Gate

  
View through the Elephant Gate

     This is now inside the park.  It used to be on Sheffield Avenue and you could actually stop and watch a game for free.  When the park was remodeled, they left the gate but now it is inside the stadium.  

Infield had just been dragged when this Padre doubled, leaving his mark in the smooth dirt.


All empties..... this is one location.  At least they are recycling the cans.

     I am also posting a separate video.
Peace and Love and ice, please
