Out At The Ballgame

We had a great time at "Out At The Ball Game" this year. This was my fourth year of organizing a group of us to go - we had a blast, enjoyed watching the boys and watched a little bit of baseball to boot.

Enjoy:

Friday's are the best

Because when I wake up in the morning I get to turn the alarm clock OFF instead of just reseting it for another early morning wakeup.

So do you have big plans for the weekend? It's supposed to rain tomorrow - which I hope is a big fat lie!

Sunday afternoon there's a group of us going to Wrigley Field to watch the Cubs beat the pants off of the Houston Astros - oh how we're hoping they do literally beat the pants off of them, how hot would that be?

I'm sure that you're worried for me, especially since on the latest episode of The Loopy Fruit Audio Network we were out at the Softball fields cheering on The Roommate and his team and now I'm going to another sporting event on my own volition, but don't worry, I'm not turning Straight...and I'm not turning into one of those gay boys that likes sports. Sometimes schedules just work out that way is all I can say.

For the last several years one of the local gay rags - The Chicago Free Press - has been sponsoring "Out At The Ballgame" which is basically "Gay Day at Wrigley Field" They buy a whole section of tickets and work with the organizers at Wrigley Field to bring in top shelf liquor drinks and hot hunky hot dog salesmen that may accidentally slip you their weiner instead of a weiner.

I love going to Wrigley Field, even though I have no idea what is going on during the game but it's a blast to eat peanuts and throw the shells on the ground, drink beer and see how many hot dogs you can eat in a 3-hour period. Of course drinking all that beer does force one to use the facilities and I can't do that at Wrigley becuase they don't have urinals.....they have the dreaded "Man Trough" Some boys enjoy that, but I'm incredibly pee shy and don't even suggest the stalls because men are GNASTY! The stalls are disgustingly dirty and gross and you end up having to flush with your foot, which is totally gross. But hey there's at least a lot of cute boys at Wrigley to watch.

A group of us went two years ago and unfortunately we missed it last year, but This Year - we're back with a vengence!

I started early this year organizing a group of girls to go and boy was I overwhelmed, there's a whopping 36 of us going! We have 4 rows in the stadium all to ourselves (well we might have to share some of those seats) it's gonna be a rauckus group of boys that's for sure.

Amber is going to be performing the National Anthem and during the Seventh Inning Stretch they always wake the crowd up with a rousing performance of "Take me out to the ballgame" The last time I was at a Cubs game Vince Vaughn sang it, I wonder who it will be this year.

So look forward to lots of pictures of drunk straight boys and some drunk gay boys!

What are you doing this weekend?

The Real Reason the Cubs are For Sale

Leave it to the media to jump on the bandwagon and shout from the hills that sky is falling.

I always find it interesting how the media will jump on one piece of news and then beat the shit out of it.

If you haven't heard yet, The Cubs are For Sale! But the reason the media is telling everyone the Cubs are for sale is because the Tribune Company was sold over the weekend to Sam Zell of Highland Park for 8.2B USD, yes that's a B for Billion. Due to that transaction the Cubs are for sale because they could make almost 600M USD which is a profit of 579M USD because they bought the Cubs in 1981 for 21M USD - that was a good investment. So the thinking is that they could make a tidy little sum just off shooting a little baseball team.

Well that's wrong........the REAL reason that the Cubs may be sold off is because Sam Zell is a already a Part Owner of the Chicago Whitesox.....and Major League Baseball's rules say that an owner can not have stakes in more than one team.

So THAT'S the real reason that Cubs are going to be sold off, it's because Sam Zell likes the White Sox better!

Now why doesn't the media run that news that Sam Zell is a Cub's hater and the only reason he bought the Tribune was because he hates the Cubs and wanted to "sell them off."

Oh yeah, I do know some things about Sports....just not how they're played!
