After that, I'm off to Madison to see my baby sister. Other than Wade any other BNers in the area?
Dammit! That's the first week I'm OUT of Chicago. Nice timing.
Madison isn't far for me...an hour.
Other BNers in the area include Chu and Coconut Bra

I agree with that. I don't know what the name of the bar was I went to by Wrigley but they were nice there and in the stands even though I admitted to being a Mets fan. ( I don't hate the Cubbies) They just made me promise that if I caught a ball hit by the Mets, I'd throw it back.
