The area around Wrigley Field (1/2 mile radius) actually has a higher crime rate than a similar area around Comiskey. Tell that to Jay Moronottti and others that trash the Sox in favor of their beloved Wrigley. Go see as many Sox games as you can afford, have a beer, cheer for our guys boo the other team (especially if it's the Cubs) and have a great time. Do it for me, I usually get back to Chi once a year or so.
