Is anyone else heading to the friendly confines for the game tonight? I'm going with my fam and another fam, and plan on freezing my arse off. Go Blue!

Sounds way too cold to even enjoy a baseball game. Sometimes (except for every Saturday in the fall) I am glad I do not live in the mighty Midwest anymore.

I was in 20mph winds with snowflakes for about five hours yesterday, and out today for about two and a half to catch three softball games. Miserable all around, including the results.

about the stinkin' weather. Had an inch of snow on ground here in SW Michigan at sunrise, and it still has to finish melting off.

If we had somewhat normal spring weather, I'd consider the 1 1/2 hour drive, as much for the novelty of seeing Michigan play at Wrigley, a beautiful old stadium (even though the Cubs always stink up the place and a large share of their fanbase is, at best, annoying) as anything else.

Not going to the game tonight. I wish they would have done this when I played. We didn't even get to play in the Metrodome. Very cool for all involved.

Did you play with Tyler Mills? I think he may be a bit younger. Do you know Mike Seestedt? I played with him growing up and he would be a few yrs older. I should probably mention they both played for Michigan.

I would be going if it was a day game, but already have evening plans. There will be plenty of M fans there though. The Chicago alumni club sold over 300 tickets. The rockit burger bar at the corner of clark and waveland is a michigan bar and hq for tonight.

The diag (with a replica M in their patio) is about a mile away at southport and george.

Have fun, wish i was there. Bring your ski gear and a blanket. My son's 8 am game was played in the snow at the lakefront fields this morning-brrrr........
