Baseball - What A Night!

Wow! What a night we had on 7 August!

Our friends in Chicago Ron & Marcia (Who we are staying with) are friends with Dave & Erica. Dave's father owns the United Centre in Chicago and also owns the Chicago Bulls (Basketball, Michael Jordan played for them). He also owns the Chicago White Sox (Baseball). Dave organised for us to go in a VIP sky box at the baseball stadium (He also got me in the owners box at the United Centre for the Roger Waters show in 2010).

We were treated like royalty! VIP parking, fabulous private box with stunning views of the game and food to die for!

The Sox were playing the Yankees and after 4 hours the Sox took out the game!

Here's a few pics....

 

Before the game this guy opens the windows but they can obviously be closed if it rains

The desert cart! Man oh man oh man. I went for a huge slab of chocolate cake with ice cream and a Baileys type drink in an edible chocolate cup. YUMMY!


Here it is (We stuffed ourselves with other food before desert of course!)


Guess who?

Beer, hot dogs and baseball, it's a tough life!
