[QUOTE="GoingNorth, post: 304171, member: 1963"] I'm originally from the North Side of Chicago and am a Cub's fan. I sure as heck know about the rivalry between the Cubs and the Cards, though. Been some wild games over the years. I can remember sneaking off early from school and catching the El down to Wrigley. You could buy bleacher tickets at the gate for a dollar and a half.\ One of the more traumatic things I saw upon first returning from Germany was the light standards above the 'green confines'. Wrigley was the last major league ballpark to put in lights and play at night. Nowadays you can't even get Cubs tickets without ordering way ahead and they are hugely expensive. I've been to quite a few Sox games as well. husband was born in Detroit and was a Tigers' fan. We used to go to Sox park to watch the Tigers play locally. Unfortunately, Sox fans tended to be a really rough bunch and once they built US Cellular Field, the park was just not real friendly, either from the standpoint of the fans or from access to those with disabilities.
