    Holy shit what a night. Been a hectic couple weeks. I have a relative who works in MLB and is able to request post season tickets for 1 team each year. Sometimes he gets em, sometimes he doesn't. Well he was able to purchase Wrigley Field World series tickets this year. He kept game 4 for himself but gave me games 3 and 5 for face value. A meager $200 a ticket. Looking at 3 grand just to get in the door for standing room only on stubhub. The tickets arrived today and I was hoping so hard I'd get to use em. Ill be living out a life long dream Friday and possibly Sunday if it goes 5 attending the WORLD SERIES AT WRIGLEY FIELD!!! I admittedly balled for about 5 minutes after they won. The birth of my son and wedding are the only things that will top this experience.

    Enjoy it. I went to one World Series game as a fan (GM 3 2000 Mets-Yankees) and covered it in 2009 and last year in New York with the Mets. These are tremendous events to be at, especially one like this upcoming series.

    Believe me. Not a second will go bye while I don't realize how absolutely lucky and fortunate I am to get this experience. Life long dream come true. I still can't stop crying from all the emotions.

    Congrats from an Angels fan especially since I grew up watching them in the 89 season on WGN with my late grandpa, who died last year, since he grew up in Chicago and was a Cubs and Sox fan and since Maddon was the bench coach for my team years ago. Always liked him and preferred him over Scioscia. Always nice to see teams end droughts.

    Congrats Cubs fans; while you're still 4 wins from the ultimate prize, just getting to the WS is a feat in and of itself. Enjoy!!!

    This Red Sox fan will never forget '04, best of luck to you.
