I shall be there with Mike Radigan, sitting behind home plate and enjoying my corn dog nuggets, peanuts and beer.

I'm taking my camera.

The game is still on for tonight as of now, and the prediction is for clearing of the rain.
The game starts at 6:30, and Dave Snell is scheduled to introduce the Braves before the game. The Chiefs will wear special commemorative Bradley jerseys which will be auctioned off during and after the game.

Just drove by the fieldhouse on my lunch break, and the red hummer is parked outside the door, getting rained on. Let that not be an omen as to tonight's weather ...

I am hopeful that we'll all make it to the ball park in a relatively dry state ...

Yes, I added them to my BU pix at Photobucket

There wasn't a huge turn-out for the game but maybe the weather had something to do with that(it did look like rain and did sprinkle at times). We had some U of I fans behind us and to me nothing is more annoying that the ILL-INI chant, especially at Bradley night.

Speaking of the ILL-INI chant, did any of you see the Illinois/ Indiana game at Indiana this year. The Indiana fans started a
ILL-DUI chant. I hate Indiana, but it was still pretty damn funny.

The more I hear this chant the more I am convinced that it is the only thing you have to be able to do to get a degree from U of I!

Hey----------I have a degree from U of I !!!
(and I did have to do some work to get it... )

Aww, T, we won't hold it against you ...


Actually, my sister is funny. Whenever she hears the I-L-L-I-N-I cheer, she adds S-U-C-K-S, in true cheerleader fashion

I might add that I am BU grad through and through, and the only work I did at Illinois was post grad so I never really saw myself as an Illinois fan.
