Cubs
One of the Aussies, Mark, is a huge baseball fan so we went up to take a look at Wrigley Field. In a country where stadiums, arenas and domes are built and demolished at crazy rates, Wrigley Field is haloed ground. We left our visit till the Sunday as the previous day's activities at the ballpark were closing ceremonies for the Gay and Lesbian Games! Mark enjoyed himself and later in the day saw the city's other team, the White-Sox, play at their home ground. Chicagoan's are baseballl crazy and had been starved of a title since the early 1900s until the Sox won it last year.

I remember checking at Wriggley Stadium at the tender age of 11 and simply thinking of bubble gum and being surprised at the number of homeless, handicapped beggars about.
I know we went to a baseball game and that the home time got a homerun because I remember being amazed at people doing a standing rendition of the National Anthem . . . Only in America!
