We we're there less then then a week before the All Star Game and it was a pit. They ran out of beer and hot dogs in the upper deck before first pitch and were unable to resupply before the third. Navigating the concourse was a third world experience and the entire place was full of yankee fans...

this urinal, just outside of the Cubs' dugout, is where Moises Alou did most of in-season callus building. i imagine due to the unfortunate placement of the spigot, below and off to the left of the urinal, that the grounds crew also have piss tough paws..
