Vince, Jen, the Cubs & ME!

So even though it seems like forever ago I must let y'all know what I did on Memorial Day! A Concert? You ask...NO a Cubs game silly!

So Roxy, Linda, Matt & I got up way to early,...And started off on our journey...Well y'see Roxy was supposed to pick up M&L first but they over slept so she came and got me...Then we went back and got them...And then I remembered I forgot my sunglasses so we went back to my house...And then Linda remembered something she forgot her sunglasses so we went back to her house...Okay so now we are off! (R U lost yet?...No?...Good...You are smarter then the average blog reader!)
So we are driving ...driving...Driving. We get up to Chicago and get our parking spot. As we are walking up to Wrigley Field(Cue music and angel like halo lights!) we 1st go to the taco place for breakfast...Cause you can't go to a cubs game without eating the best damn tacos 1st! YUMMY!!!

TACOS!!!!

So once we were in line for the bleachers...We waited to get in and then RUN like the dickens to get the best damn seat we can. Since we weren't real close up in line we opted to vie for the left center last row! These are great seats because you get a back rest!
Roxy, Matt & Linda!


Now if you live in central Illinois you will remember how freakin' hot Memorial Day was. So know we are sitting in the sun for 2 hours to watch batting practice! Which is awesome! We also have spread our enough to not have to touch any skin on skin! It was to hot to be smooshed into each other! Roxy and I ate some sunflower seeds and decided to spit all the shells on the seats in front of us to see how long it would stay empty! Almost until game time until no other seats were left and then this guy came up and just wiped it off I with his hand! EEWWW! Unfortunately for his sake he then ended up with shells in his hair and down the back of his pants! Sorry dude!

Then right as the game was starting this couple walked up and asked up to scoot together so they could sit by us and Linda started to but Roxy and I were like NOOOOO! And the couple got kinda bitchy and I looked at them and said..." We showed up 2 hours before the game for these seats and you didn't" they were mad...too bad for them!

The Cubs played awesome and we had an kickin' time harassing Ken Griffey Jr. We keep heckleling him and he would look at our bleacher section and act like why are you picking on me and then he would point over to Adam Dunn so we all started yelling Dunn Dunn Dunn...and Ken was all happy and Adam looks over at him and is like Why would you sick them on me! It was really entertaining even if the story doesn't seem like it!

So then it came to the 7th inning stretch and Vince Vaughn sang it and he was awesome!!! He was there with Jen and they were in a sky box! He threw out the 1st pitch too!
Vince singing (look really hard up in the booth) HAHAHA


We ended up winning the game...and Todd Walker(Sigh) hit a home run and so did Matt Murton. Matt's homerun was right by us and later on we watched it on TIVO and we saw ourselves on TV!

We stopped at Cheddars in Boilingbrook and ate on the way home and then when we were almost to Roanoke Matt told Roxy he wasn't feeling good so she pulled over and he RALPHED on the side of the road and it was all foaming and he got some on her car...I was laughing so hard I thought I would pee my pants...and Roxy and Linda have bad gag reflexes so they were trying not to listen so they wouldn't throw up too! When he got back in the car he wiped his mouth with a napkin and threw it out the window and it got caught on the antenna so we were flying a vomit flag from the car!

So that was our trip to the Cubs game in a nut...er I mean sunflower seed shell!

man, that sounds so fun. isn't cool all the celebs (which there are more from chicago than i thought) that go to cub games. i love it when bill murray goes.

i can't wait to go to a game. i hope to sit near left field so i can yell my proposal to matt murton. and he'd better say "yes"
