White Sox Win!!

One of the benefits of the lab is that they have season passes to the White Sox. If a client is not using them, employees are given the opportunity to enter their name in a raffle to win.




 Lucky enough, not one had put their name in for the game on Mother's Day! The bundle came with two tickets, two passes to the stadium club and a parking pass.

US Cellular Field aka Comiskey Park (in local jargon)
A little tid bit, the Sox played at Comiskey Park from 1910-1990 until the new field was built right across the street.
You can see the old park on the left and the new park on the right. They have since torn down the old park but have left a piece of memorabilia where home plate was.

I didn't find this out until afterwards so I can't claim the pics. The next game I'll have to take Herbert for his photo op.





Since they are season tickets, we were able to sneak into the area between the field and the area outside.



Our Box


By the bottom of the 5th, I was a wee bit cold and hungry. So we went to the stadium club which is a private restaurant/bar for box ticket holders.  It was pretty awesome to be able to watch the game live and on TV while eating!!




The best part about the night...


Sox Win!!!

It was so much fun and it gave me an opportunity to see the city for the first time. I didn't bring Herbert to the game because I felt a bit silly but he'll be venturing out on the next adventure!!!
