cut the line of fans<\/a> waiting to get their name checked off of the guest list. Thus, we find seats before everyone else. This time, we came up to the rooftop in the first inning, but happened to find two seats within a four-seat row at the very front of the rooftop. This added a level of entertainment not normally experienced from inside the park or even further back on the rooftop.<\/p>\nFirst, we saw a fan run out of Gate C (Addison and Sheffield) only to have about five security guards chase after him and a Chicago cop on a dune buggy (from outside the stadium) grab him and throw him to the ground. We continued to watch as his three friends scuffled with security and all 4 of them were escorted \u201cback\u201d into Wrigley Field to go sit in \u201cWrigley Field jail.\u201d<\/p>\n

It is quite amazing to think about all the random events that occur during a sporting event.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"

Yesterday, the Ultimate Sports Wife and I took in the game from one of Wrigley\u2019s famous rooftop. It was the second game I spent on the rooftop this season.
