Guys, obviously new to the board so from an International Cubs fan first things first

Hello, GO CUBS GO!!!

From my name im sure you can tell that im a Leeds United fan, the reason i state this is due to the curse

I cant help but think that LU and the CC have this in common

My football club (not soccer) and The Pride Of Chicago are both huge clubs that should have acheived more than we have, with a passionate and loyal fanbase, but back to the curse

During our finest era (1965-1975) our coach the late great Don Revie was so superstitious that he hired a gypsy woman who told him that our Elland Road home was cursed and told him the ony way to lift the curse was to piss in all 4 corners of the stadium, he did this and Leeds United went on to become the most feared team in Europen Football

Another aside is the fact that Leeds United share a deep hatred for Manchester United (our despised neighbours) just like Cubs fans do for The Wank Sox

I have visited your great city before (albeit I stayed in #### Sox territory on the south side) but a friend took me to Wrigley Field, something I will never forget, the sense of history you felt by just looking at the Ivy covered walls was spine chilling, a definitive moment in the life of anyone who visits the home of such a world famous club

I am still in contact with my South Side friends and i will be visiting your city again later this year, so i ask you

Pre game drinking?? wheres the best spots?

Areas at the ball park?? i dont wanna sit in with the day trippers, i wanna be in the same area as the committed bleed red, white and blue following

Ticket prices, booking reservations??? All advice welcomed

Within USA when people think about Baseball i would imagine the Yankees spring to mind

Different story outside of America though, The Cubs are the most famous Baseball Club in the world and it will be a honour and privilage to be sat in attendence at Wrigley Field to see the The Cubs strut their stuff

Fact...... No-one gives a #### about The White Sox
