Good morning. Just about the perfect day yesterday for me, hitting up Wrigley and then spending the evening strolling around my old neighborhood in Chicago and eating at one of my favorite restaurants. Game was lots of fun, minus the cold weather and the 9th inning collapse. I posted pics in the Wrigley 100th Anniversary thread. Here's a couple more...

Some random notes:
- Panini will love photos from this game... no logos on the hats worn! Cubs were in throwback Chicago Federals jerseys and Arizona in Kansas City Packers uniforms.
- You could buy the bases from the game for $1000 each. But they changed them at the end of every inning. $27,000 in base sales!
- Literally rubbed shoulders with Fergie Jenkins in the concourse.
- Beers have eclipsed $8.00 mark.
- Mailed the postcards I promised after the game. Hope you guys enjoy them.
And you guys probably remember the 1914 postcard I posted. Well here it is with a 2014 update I made.
Glad to hear you had a good time. The two post card pics are amazing. I wish the Cubs would have won but to me at least it seems kind of fitting they lost the way they did.
