Fun with beer cups at Wrigley Field …
Posted by: Richie Rich in Beer, Cubs, Drunken Fans, Harry Caray
I’ve seen lots of Cub games from the Wrigley Field Bleachers.
All told, I’ve probably NOT SEEN just as many Cub games from the Wrigley Field Bleachers – thanks to that wonderful 16-ounce cup to the left.
One of the things you see bleacherites doing is cup-stacking their beer cups.
It’s a great way to show everyone how many $6 beers you consumed and (not coincidentally) how much of a drunken tool you’re going to be during the last few innings of the game, if not at Bernie’s after the game.
Mind you, I’ve never seen Wrigley Cup-Stacking like this before …
Looks to be a group effort. I don’t think even the most weathered functional alcoholics that you find at Wrigley could put that many away.
I take it back. Harry Caray could do it and ask for more.
Impressive … Most Impressive. The stack seems to have been passed from the bottom of the bleachers to the top of the bleachers … without tipping over.
By my count, there’s at least 110 cups in that stack.

Now I’m all thirsty. I simply cannot wait for baseball season to start.

In Philly we get blitzed before the game. It’s cheaper to buy a case of cheap Beer for $12-$16 bucks and down those before the game than at $5-$7 a pop inside.

I wonder if the Cubs won that game, oh wait, in the bleachers, the game is a distant second!

My question is, what’s up with the random dude in the BoSox hat?

It’s en vogue to be a Cubs or Red Sox fan. The Romance of long suffering. I don’t get why with Boston having two titles this last decade. What is the long suffering from, …… bad accents?
