I'll be in the windy city for business and should be done by 5pm with enough time to watch the game via Twitter scrolling. Wish I could watch it live.

Mother Hubbards in River North is a great spot.

That'd be awesome if they aired the game. I can't believe it's only a few blocks from my hotel on Ontario Street.

Just ask. Great people there. I spent an afternoon watching baseball while the wife shopped Nordstrom's, and struck up a conversation with another fan. We ended up buying rounds for each other. It wasn't until I got up to leave that I found out I'd spent the afternoon with Mark Grace.

Why would anyone drive in Chi-town? Subway and cheap cabs.

Due to logistical issues, we drove on our last trip. The hotel wanted to charge us $65/day to park. I found other arrangements. Not a driver's town.

I know some members of the board were trying to confirm with Jaks Tap (our usual Chicago place) that they will have the game. They've got a pretty good beer list and give Creighton fans 20% off during games.

Confirming that Denver is Prohibition Bar on Colfax and Pennsylvania. I also saw a Jays flag in Winter Park at The Library (bar), it was a great day to be jay.

Went to a bar in Red Lodge, Montana once. About halfway through the meal I was looking around, and I'll be damned if it didn't have a Jays flag and a Jays penant hanging on its wall. Can't remember its name, but if you're ever in Red Lodge, just check them all until you find it.

On that same trip, we were hanging out in West Yellowstone -- Fouth of July, busy time, everyone in this little town for its fireworks show. A car drives by, and I'll be damned if it doesn't have the new Jays Nebraska license plates. Funny trip.

We were driving through rural, and I mean RURAL Maine two summers ago and came across an SUV with a Nebraska Jays plate, a Jays sticker and decal on. Talked to them at the next stop and they've been CU fans for years.

Also, somewhat more local, saw a guy in Custer, South Dakota last summer with a Jays basketball shirt on. When I yelled 'Go Jays!' from my car he just stared at me and gave me a weird look.
