By the way, are there any locals on the board who can throw out
a few suggestions for local eateries, pubs, and oh yeah card shops
in the general area.

As one of the other posters mentioned...Take a jacket regardless of the time of year. The weather can change on a dime.

In terms of places to eat, I can only tell you where the front office employees went. There might be other good places but a few of my favorites are:

Chicago Grinder Company
www.chicagopizzaandovengrinder.com
Check out their pizza pot pie!! And they are across the street from the St. Valentines day massacre sight! Not very far from the ball park on Clark St.

Leona's

Good neighborhood place to eat and a few blocks south of the ballpark on Sheffield. Not far from the Briar Street Theater where you can catch the Blue Man Group show after the game. (if its a day game)

By the way Nice seats. You will be in the sun part of the day but as the day goes on, be prepared for shade by bringing a jacket!! Hows that for public service!!
