I Need to Know if This is Sarcasm . . .
. . . because if it is, it's great.
The Chicago Tribune published on Sunday a special section called "Wrigley: A Fan's Guide to the Home of the Cubs." One article was titled "Some advice from paying customers." One fan -- Julie Schye -- had the following advice: "Bring your cell phone and keep an eye open for the WGN cameras. If lucky, you can wave and talk to friends all over the country who are watching on TV."
Someone needs to find out if Julie was being sarcastic, because if she was, what a great coup to get that printed. If she was serious, and you happen to know or meet her . . . well, she's still a Cubs fan. So be kind.
The article also contains some conflicting advice from two fans. From Kevin: "It is NOT acceptable to bring a glove to a baseball game if you are above 14 years old." Then, from Tim M: "Always bring your baseball glove. You can never be sure when a foul ball or batting practice ball can come your way!"
For the record, Kevin is right and Tim is wrong. (And you can tell from the rest of Tim's comment that he is not being sarcastic.)

I guarantee you she was being
I guarantee you she was being serious. It's a tourist attraction first, then possibly a ballpark.
Goofs
Gotta be just as annoying as that idiot (I won't say his name because it lends credibility to the goof - the high pitch yelper). Trying to watch a game with these goofs behind the plate waving like lunatics, especially the 'bimbos' with the LOW CUT tops - looking to be discovered either by hollywood or one of the ballplayers. No one likes to look at a good looking woman more than I do - but, how about a time and a place. I'd really like to enjoy and concentrate on the Cubs and what's going on in the game. Men are JUST as stooopid with the cell phones. Just annoying, that's all.
