May 2025

had dinner at a bar tonight, and there was a guy wearing sox gear.
when the won the world series, i was shocked to see how many came out of the woodwork. they just arent as loud & obnoxious about it as the cubs fans.

not much of a sports fan, but the ex was a lifelong sox fan. we were in a season ticket cabal, and i enjoyed it. nice park, good food, better beer than wrigley. much nicer fans.
