Well, summer’s coming again, and the SO and I are contemplating my annual trip to Wrigley Field. The dates are still unknown, but my question is this: What Dopers live in the Chicago area that might be able to hook up? IIRC, jarbaby lives in the Chicago area, but that’s about all I know.

Well, I’m in Chicago, and frequently at Wrigley, but I always manage to miss dopefests. No doubt this will be another to add to the list…but who knows?

It’d be cool if we could have a big Cubs-game fest. Although we’ve failed that once already.

And I’m not sure there are enough tickets in a group to do that (at least on a weekend - you Chicago types may be able to pull it off on a weekday)
