Rooftop


Went on a Wrigley Field Rooftop yesterday, unbelievable. The view was way better than anything I could have expected. I knew I was going to like it, but man was I overwhelmed with how great it was.

I was invited by my uncle so luckily for me I did not have to buy the ticket, Thanks Jim.

At the door a cute girl stops you and asks for your name and who you are with, once inside you walk up a nice stairwell to the third floor. On the third floor it is decked out with Wrigley signs and posters. There is also a bar in the room that faces the field. In the room next to the bar is a pool table for when the Cubs suck, its been getting a lot of use, and at the end of a hallway is the door to the roof top.

A steel stairwell takes you up to the roof. At the top of the steps is a patio were there are tables and chairs on one side and a fully functional little restaurant. You then walk up a couple of stairs and that is where the double Decker set of seats are. Under that is a little make shift bar.

The food was perfect. In innings 1-3 they serve hotdogs, brats, and Italian sausage, I got a hot dog. In innings 4, 5, and 6 they serve hamburgers, cheeseburgers, teryaiki chicken, boneless rib sandwiches and ribs, and all with your choice of potato salad, mashed potatoes, chips and/or Caesar salad, I got the chicken and the rib sandwiches with a side of potato salad. Then for the kicker all drinks free too. This was one of the best cubs games I have ever been to, and they stink.

Cubs ended up losing in extra innings 7-4, thanks bullpen.
