Hobbies: DEMOLITION OF GRAND STANDS NOW;,,,,,,,,My new interest in renovation of Wrigley Field. The only way to do it right is total demolition of the grandstands, that is first and 3rd base side seats. Keep the field(DO NOT TOUCH THE FIELD), the wall(bartman wall), keep the bleachers, keep the score board and demo the rest. Build a new grandstand like they did at Arlington Race Track after the fire. You can make a better park with better sight ines, more skyboxes and best of all build all the way out to Clark on the 3rd base side where the car wash and Yum Yum Donuts space are for a mini convention center. Also lots more bathrooms and some more parking. When demolition is done save all the old concrete to mix into the new park for green reasons and keeping the history. Hire me to do the Public Relations on this. You can probably increase seating to 48,000 by going higher, God forbid some seats will be high and far. Perhaps a three tier bleacher similar to the new Saint Louis Cardinals stadium with the second level being a club level like at the United Center. I think playing one year at the Cell Park but if construction is done right some games could be played at WRigley with limited seating especially if no bleacher work is done. Sam Zell, if you read this this is my plan, don't move to ARlington Hts, I know that deal with be sweet for you in the short run but bad for Cub fans and Chicago. y.,,,,,,,,,,,,,Keep the Cubs at WRigley but rebuild the park,,,,also keep the Marque and put it back after the construction, keep that name WRigley Field................i............i................i ,,,,,,,,,,,,,......................DO NOT LET THE ILLINOIS SPORTS AUTHORITY BUY WRIGLEY FIELD, it is a private business and government has no business here.

Loyal lifetime Chicago Cubs fan, attended 38 games last year in the park and 17 out on Waveland Avenue. My claim to fame, I was at the game in 1969 when Cubs pitcher Ken Holtzman threw his first no hitter on August 19, 1969. I sat in the bleachers on 8/8/88 for the first night game, it was a rainout. I was at clincher game in 2003 but watched the Bartman game on television at a North Shore Ice Arena(Cubs fans all remember where they were at that moment). Fast forward to 2007, I caught two balls on Waveland during the White Sox series, all batting practice, no gamers. Caught several in park, several throw ups by players, no gamers. This year I have caught one throw up ball from Soriano and one ball on Waveland Avenue during batting practice. In my childhood, Dave Kingman lived next door for a year and Joe Pepitone lived around the corner for two years. He had a bar on State and Division called "The Joe Pepitone Thing" later becoming the Rockery and now a CVS Pharmacy. He would get annoyed when us kids would say "Hey Pepi" In 1969 Leo Durocher married a mom in my sister's class at school so we saw him several times at school. He was very friendly as I remember. I loved Leo in that episode of the Munster's when Herman tried out for the Dodgers. i................. The 1969 Chicago Cubs were the Greatest team ever.
