시카고 컵스의 홈경기가 열리는 날. 시카고엔 화이트삭스와 컵스 두 야구팀이 있는데, 역시 컵스가 인기다. 컵스의 상징은 곰. 커비 베어가 야구팬들을 맞이한다. 컵스의 아버지로 불리는 강타자 어니 뱅크스. 시카고 아버지들의 꿈은 아들과 함께 야구장에 오는 거다. “우리는 3대 째 컵스 팬이에요. 큰아들 매튜는 열두 살이고 둘째는 열한 살, 막내는 일곱 살이에요. 오늘 정말 기대돼요. 막내가 처음으로 보는 경기거든요. 첫째랑 둘째는 전에도 보러온 적 있어요. 꾀부려 학교를 빼먹고 경기를 보러오기도 했어요.“ 밴드의 연주가 분위기를 달군다. 1916년에 지어진 리글리필드는 내셔널 리그에서 가장 오래된 구장이다. 관중석이 가득 찼는데, 심지어 구장 바깥 건물 옥상에도 관중석이 마련돼 있다. 구단에서는 담을 높여 좌석 수를 늘리고 싶어 하는데 이 건물주들이 반대한다고 한다. 소송도 제기됐지만 건물주가 이겼단다. 아직도 전광판이 아닌 손으로 교체하는 스코어보드를 쓴다. 오늘 경기의 상대는 휴스턴 아스트로스. 컵스 팬의 열성은 미국에서도 유명하다. 사실 컵스는 미국 메이저리그의 최강자를 가리는 월드시리즈에서 1908년 이후 한 번도 우승하지 못했다. 그걸 ‘100년간의 슬럼프’ 또는 ‘염소의 저주’라고 부른다. 한 야구팬이 야구장에 염소를 끌고 왔다가 입장을 거부당하자, 앞으로 이 구장에서 월드시리즈가 열리지 못할 것이라고 악담을 하고 간 이후 저주에 걸렸다는 것이다. 하지만 컵스 팬들은 지치지 않고 대를 이어 컵스를 응원한다. 7회 초가 끝난 뒤, 사람들이 갑자기 일어난다. ”나를 야구장에 데려다주오. 나를 군중 속으로 데려다주오. 땅콩과 과자도 사주오. 돌아가지 못한대도 상관없소. 컵스를 평생 응원하리. 이기지 못하면 어떡하나. 원, 투, 쓰리 스트라이크, 아웃이네. 오랜 야구 경기의 규칙이라네.“ 컵스는 오늘도 졌다. 하지만 팬들은 개의치 않는 것 같다. “제가 처음 본 경기에서도 컵스가 졌는걸요 뭐. 중요한 건 야구장 분위기죠. 컵스 경기는 항상 분위기가 좋잖아요. 그죠?“

Wrigley Field is a baseball stadium located in Chicago, Illinois, United States, home of the Chicago Cubs. It was built in 1914 as Weeghman Park for the Chicago Federal League baseball team, the Chicago Whales. The Cubs played their first game at Weeghman Park on April 20, 1916, defeating the Cincinnati Reds 7–6 in eleven innings. In November 1918, Weeghman resigned as team president. Chewing gum magnate William Wrigley, Jr. acquired complete control of the Cubs by 1921. It was called Cubs Park from 1920 through 1926, before officially becoming Wrigley Field for the 1927 season.
Located in the north side community area of Lakeview, Wrigley Field sits on an irregular block bounded by Clark (west) and Addison (south) Streets and Waveland (north) and Sheffield (east) Avenues. Wrigley Field is nicknamed The Friendly Confines, a phrase popularized by Mr. Cub, Hall of Famer Ernie Banks. The current capacity is 41,009, making Wrigley Field the 10th-smallest actively used ballpark. It is the oldest National League ballpark and the second oldest active major league ballpark (after Fenway Park on April 20, 1912), and the only remaining Federal League park.
Wrigley Field is known for its ivy covered brick outfield wall, the unusual wind patterns off Lake Michigan, the iconic red marquee over the main entrance, the hand turned scoreboard, and for being the last major league park to have lights installed for play after dark, with lighting installed in 1988. The area surrounding the ballpark contains residential streets, in addition to bars, restaurants and other establishments and is called Wrigleyville. Between 1921 and 1970, it was also the home of the Chicago Bears of the National Football League. It hosted the second annual National Hockey League Winter Classic between the Chicago Blackhawks and the Detroit Red Wings, on January 1, 2009.

[4k] Walking Tour of Millennium Park (Cloud Gate, Bean Sculpture) Chicago Illinois USA
Millennium Park is a public park located in the Loop community area of Chicago in Illinois operated by the Chicago Department of Cultural Affairs and managed by MB Real Estate. The park was originally intended to celebrate the third millennium and is a prominent civic center near the city's Lake Michigan shoreline that covers a 24.5-acre (99,000 m2) section of northwestern Grant Park. The area was previously occupied by parkland, Illinois Central's rail yards, and parking lots.[1] The park, which is bounded by Michigan Avenue, Randolph Street, Columbus Drive and East Monroe Drive, features a variety of public art. As of 2009, Millennium Park trailed only Navy Pier as a Chicago tourist attraction and by 2017 it had become the number one tourist attraction in the Midwestern United States. In 2015, the park became the location of the city's annual Christmas tree lighting.
Planning of the park began in October 1997. Construction began in October 1998, and Millennium Park was opened in a ceremony on July 16, 2004, four years behind schedule. The three-day opening celebrations were attended by some 300,000 people and included an inaugural concert by the Grant Park Orchestra and Chorus. The park has received awards for its accessibility and green design.[2] Millennium Park has free admission,[3] and features the Jay Pritzker Pavilion, Cloud Gate, the Crown Fountain, the Lurie Garden, and various other attractions. The park is connected by the BP Pedestrian Bridge and the Nichols Bridgeway to other parts of Grant Park. Because the park sits atop a parking garage and the commuter rail Millennium Station, it is considered the world's largest rooftop garden.
Some observers consider Millennium Park the city's most important project since the World's Columbian Exposition of 1893.[3][4] It far exceeded its originally proposed budget of $150 million. The final cost of $475 million was borne by Chicago taxpayers and private donors. The city paid $270 million; private donors paid the rest,[5] and assumed roughly half of the financial responsibility for the cost overruns.[6] The construction delays and cost overruns were attributed to poor planning, many design changes, and cronyism. Many critics have praised the completed park.
In 2017, Millennium Park was the top tourist destination in Chicago and the Midwest, and placed among the top ten in the United States with 25 million annual visitors.[7]

Take Me Out To Wrigley Field!
My first visit to Wrigley Field. I was born on the southside so I always went to Comiskey Park. 48 years later I make my first visit. The funny part was I sat to a couple that were visiting for the first time and they were 48 years old also! Their kid took a picture of us. They were from Boston visiting Milwaukee. Chicago and St. Louis ballparks for their vacation. Great people.
