Extra hour at 3'oclock bar night isn't the same in a big city with 4 am bars
First of all, GO CARDINALS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 2006 World Series Champs!!!!!!!!!!!!! Great ugly series and Yadi should have been mvp not the little man. But Go Cardinals!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Second, very fun weekend. After getting out of work a little too late to make it to St Louis, my wonderful girlfriend went out with me Friday to find the one Cardinal bar in Chicago (that's even though she's a cub fan, now that's love). Said Cardinal bar was WAY too crowded even an hour and a half before game time. So we wondered down a little to a strange little place, the front was normal cool wood bar then the back was old school down home style cooking place, great food. After that and not being able to get into the Cardinal bar, we ended up slighly down the block at another bar called Gamekeepers, there we found 2 bar stools, bass and amstel light on tap and about 18 TV's all on the game. Not very crowded when we got there but as the game went out it became the offical overflow bar for Cardinal fans, became packed and the poor only 3 employees working were swamped. All in all a fun fun night with the Cardinals winning the world series!!!!!
Sat was chill, I do miss this night back home. I didn't even say Happy Extra Hour at 3 O'clock Bar Night to anyone. No Curve for me, no shots of Jack, no cheering at the clock either, oh fun sat in october of past. Oh well, Chi-town is still a cool fun place and it's not even freezing today. The new job goes very well but I still miss a few things from down south, here's to cheap wings, big 2.50 beer, harrys, pinball, and x-mas shopping trips on said sundays.
