How Cubs fans can spend their hard earned money

What better way to honor your visit to Wrigley Field than to… throw a football??

From mlb.com:

The Friendly Confines will be transformed into a football field for the first time since 1970 when the Northwestern University Wildcats host the University of Illinois Fighting Illini for a special college game in a unique setting. The Cubs are opening the ballpark the following day, Sunday, November 21, for fans to play catch on the football field-all for Chicago Cubs Charities.

I’ll wait till next year’s Dunking Contest at the Friendly Confines.

A better way to spend your money perhaps is the Chicago Cubs Convention.  Since the tickets went on sale today for the January 14-16 affair your luck in getting them through the normal channels may be thin.  But there’s always Ebay and other popular web auction and reseller sites.  I’ve had luck doing that in the past.  250x300_cookbook

 

Finally, if that money is still burning a hole in your wallet of yours, you could always buy a Cubs cookbook.  No, the image to the right is not a joke.  I wish it was.  At least the proceeds go to a good cause… the Dempster Family Foundation.

I wonder if it includes goat stew… or humble pie.
