Sorry to post this here folks, but in line with my conversation with Freeze, I will do it this once and not again...
CHICAGO -- The Triple-A Iowa Cubs will play the Las Vegas 51s at Wrigley Field on Aug. 9 in an official Pacific Coast League game.
"What a fun thing for young kids to get a chance to see guys who are not far away from playing at Wrigley Field," said Cubs player development director Oneri Fleita. "It's a great thing for our players. You can't replicate that atmosphere anywhere but at Wrigley Field."
The "Road to Wrigley," presented by National City, will include family-friendly priced tickets, activities for children of all ages and traditional Minor League attractions. The game will start at 1:20 p.m. CT, and tickets are available at cubs.com and start as low as $5.
Last July 29, the Class A Peoria Chiefs and Kane County Cougars played in the first "Road to Wrigley," which drew 32,103 fans for a Midwest League game. It was believed to be the only Minor League game ever played at Wrigley Field.
Iowa is in its 29th season as a Cubs affiliate. Through Tuesday, the Iowa Cubs were 1 1/2 games out of first place in the Northern Division [Show/Hide Quoted Message] (Quoting Message by Deep Freeze from Wednesday, June 10, 2009 3:01:48 PM) |  | Deep Freeze wrote: | | Hey joe!

Yo Ron!! Yeah , the 51s are the Vegas franchise. Used to be the Dodger's affiliate but the owner refused to upgrade the ANCIENT facilities we have here so the Dodgers left after last season. They now have the Blue Jays here!! The owner here is a moron but..., well, it is minor league. Still, I do enjoy going to the games. You can ALWAYS get a great seat and the price is unbeatable.
Funny thing about ticket prices, I paid over $100 a piece for Dodger seats in LA. Paid $70 a piece for the San Francisco seats (luxury area!) and in San Diego, I got the same field level box seats for $55 a piece!!!! |  | ronhartsell wrote: | | Hi Scorp!! Good hearing from you!!
Freeze...you're Las Vegas AAA club will be at Wrigley in August against our AAA club. Gonna try to make it. |  | Deep Freeze wrote: | | Ah, Promotions! You may recall that I went to a local 51's game a few weeks ago and was somewhat confused as to why it started at 10 in the morning until I arrived to find that it was ELEMENTARY SCHOOL day!!! HA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Still, always love a good game!
We really enjoyed our trip to AT&T Park in San Francisco! GREAT time in a beautiful park. PETCO park is really nice as well. I have been there a few times and I am really looking forward to this game!!!! |  | scorpion01 wrote: | | THAT SHOULD BE A LOT OF FUN. I ALWAYS WANTED TO SEE MORE GAVES IN OTHER CITIES.

I SHOULD TAKE MY SON AND TRY TO DO A TRIP ONCE A YEAR.
BROOKLYN CYCLONES OPEN UP NEXT FRIDAY. I HAVE 3 GAMES IN THE FIRST WEEK. IT'S ALWAY GREAT TO SEE THE FANS THAT SIT IN OUR SECTION THAT WE HAVEN'T SEEN SINCE SEPTEMBER. THEY HAVE A LOT OF GREAT PROMOTION WHERE THE KIDS GET VERY INVOLVED. OUR LITTLE LEAGUE HAS A NIGHT THERE WHERE THE KIDS IN UNIFORM GET TO TAKE THE FIELD WITH THE PLAYERS FOR THE NATIONAL ANTHEM.

Morning everyone!
Oh yay for new drumming stuff Joe! If I get this job I'm after, I'm going to tell Craig I want a proper drum kit - although my electronic one is good for keeping quiet when I have my headphones on, I want a regular kit! I'm going to get some notation books sometime soon too and will try to write down JP drum notation as best I can, seen as I can't find anything other than crappy tabs online.
Oooh San Diego is nice Freeze! I've been there a couple of times, mind you the last time was many years ago, I remember my mum trying to take a photo of my sister and I at the old town and we were being stupid, and this cop saw us and came over looking like 'WTF are these kids up to?' LOL! You can see him in the photo too  [Show/Hide Quoted Message] (Quoting Message by joedraper from Wednesday, June 10, 2009 1:56:29 PM) |  | joedraper wrote: | | Hello Defenders!!
Had my patches taken off today and I'm feelling relieved already! OMG.. The itching... indescriptive.. I'm so glad that part of the test is over with.. now I'm just left with the red burns, welts and blisters on my back that I'm still not allowed to scratch lol.. I've already from less than 48 hours got some results of what is causing the allergies but some are still 'cultivating' and I'll know the full list by Friday.. then the madness can stop lol.
I'm going shopping for new drumming stuff tomorrow!! Yay!!
