We went to Wrigley.
A big group of the team went there.
And again, I...
told the, Hey, I know people with the Cubs.
Can you help us out and get us some BP on the field?
So the kids got to go on for BP and everyone got to come in early to the stadium and got to see the Cubs take BP and got to, you know, stand on literally Wrigley field.
So the kids were really loving that too.
So it was great.
Enjoyable game.
But then the next night, myself, JB and James and my two sons, we just went alone and watched the game and got to see, I think, Valdez didn't even make it out of the first inning and gave up, I don't even know, seven runs or six runs or something like that is what we saw.
And seeing the game that close was because we sat kind of right behind the dugout.
is also an experience for anybody who has seen a game, a Major League Baseball game, that close to the field.
Wrigley is pretty tight on the edges, so you're really close to the plays.
And seeing pitches come in that fast, seeing balls hit to Bregman at third, both of my sons were like, this is fast.
So when you see it on TV, it still looks fast, but when you see Bregman charge a ball, make the play, make the throw right in front of you,
And then you watch the highlight.
You're like, oh, no, that happened way faster in real life.
So the speed of the game of how that moves is so much different when you're at level and you're seeing all that happen.
So I think that was a little eye-opening for them.
And for me, it was my first experience both times at Wrigley as a fan.
