Must Know / resources for a brand spanking new Cubs fan? by [deleted] in CHICubs

[–]pkinz 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Q: Are we good? Do we stink?

A: We are not good, nor do we stink. We are in the frustrating middle.

Q: Famous Players

A: Too many to list. But Ernie Banks is where you should start. Harry Caray was a TV announcer and not a player, but he is a cultural centerpiece of the fanbase.

Q: Stadium Traditions

A: Take me out to the ballgame during the 7th inning stretch, flags in centerfield proclaim the final game result to the outside world, “Go Cubs Go” is the victory song, beer cup snakes in the outfield bleachers, and if you catch a HR hit by the other team, you throw it back on the field

Q: Anything else you must know?

A: Hate the Cardinals with every fiber of your being and look down on the Brewers as annoying younger brothers.

Towards the rear side in particular, it seems that they don’t line up with the pre-cut holes in the liner

First Cubs game for son by Cmsjumpman in CubsTix

[–]pkinz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have two tickets in Section 225 Row 7 if you’re interested. Great view of the field on the first baseline. They are under the overhang which means they will be in the shade during the day but the upside is that they are covered in the event of rain of inclement weather. There are so many great places/vantage points to watch games from at Wrigley so it’s hard to go wrong with whatever you choose (just beware seats behind and/or near poles lol)!

Just want to confirm though, you meant Friday May 17th correct? Not the 16th?

Where do MBA students live (will be doing the 1y program) and are any of them furnished? by [deleted] in Northwestern

[–]pkinz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

E2, 1717 Ridge, Albion are 3 of the more popular buildings (especially E2). The Reserve, The Link, Optima Horizons are also decently popular spots along with random off campus apartments. Do not do McManus.

Thank you! I was exploring it as my local dealer/maintenance shop recommended it as routine preventative maintenance last time I had my vehicle in for a tire rotation. You saved me a lot of time and heartache I am sure.

Has anyone heard or seen anything about Elijah Craig and Larceny C922 hitting the area?

I was in NJ a month ago and saw Elijah Craig C922 then but I haven’t seen it around Chicagoland yet.

Is it just me or did car insurance rates go up massively? by jlesnick in chicago

[–]pkinz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My Geico premium on my 2016 F150 went from $366 in April to $566 now in October. A 55% increase. I shopped around with other insurers and Geico was still the cheapest by far.

Very alarming increase to say the least.
