QUOTE(ChiSoxyGirl @ Oct 20, 2005 -> 09:53 AM) For one horrible moment, as I read the thread title I thought it would be JESSE Jackson and I was like NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! But I really like these two choices. Glad to see I wasn't the only one to think that lol.

I'm liking them winning all the marbles in game 6. The reception would definitely end up in the beer garden until closing if this is the case lol.

I tried searching for 1 or 2 tickets to various games, just for kicks, and found nada.

Wow - all the players' wives were drinking the water, weren't they? Congrats!

QUOTE(greasywheels121 @ Oct 19, 2005 -> 04:25 PM) Has anyone ever seen them? I only know the name thanks to a Sox HR. There was an interview with them on the news. It was sweet, made me mist up when he talked about his dearly departed Ursula. Seems like a good guy.

QUOTE(IlliniKrush @ Oct 19, 2005 -> 03:33 PM) There are many months in which my marriage cannot take place, one of them is October. It was about our 4th choice - after awhile we just gave up and took what we could get lol.

QUOTE(knightni @ Oct 19, 2005 -> 02:06 PM) Game 6 of the WS is next Saturday. Bummer. I will be going betwen the beer garden and the hall for updates (saying there will be a game 6). I can only imagine if there is and the Sox win the whole thing that night what it would be like - a story for the ages!

QUOTE(kapkomet @ Oct 19, 2005 -> 01:48 PM) When is the wedding again? This weekend? Or next? Next.

Personally, I think being so close to halloween they should just have a seance and the first player from either 1917 or 1959 to respond gets to throw the first pitch.

Brian shocked me - he picked out the first dance song and I absolutely love it - Thank You by Led Zeppelin (unplugged version).

QUOTE(tonyho7476 @ Oct 19, 2005 -> 12:02 PM) I always wear flavored condoms when I give myself oral. You have to be safe...I don't know where I've been. LMAO!

QUOTE(sec159row2 @ Oct 19, 2005 -> 10:46 AM) I just talked to a chicago fireman who said western ave is the location for a sox WS victory parade... but i'm not sure if i can believe him... he's a cub fan... That would be awesome if that happened if/when the Sox win - I could walk to it if it were there.

Congrats to OZ! (Congrats are sent from my mom as well lol.)

QUOTE(LosMediasBlancas @ Oct 18, 2005 -> 03:09 PM) Good question. I'm sure a very small % get rejected for bad cards, duplicate orders etc. When and where do those go back up? That is how my co-worker go tickets to one of the ALDS/ALCS games - he just kept trying a few days before and lo and behold he found one - lucky bastard .

Big rig overturns on vehicles. POSTED: 1:56 pm CDT October 18, 2005 UPDATED: 2:29 pm CDT October 18, 2005 MARKHAM, Ill. -- A big rig with a full load of gravel overturned onto at least two vehicles near Markham Tuesday afternoon. The crash took place at 159th and Crawford. There are reports from the scene that someone may be trapped inside one of the vehicles. LIVE NOW: Sky5 Video From Scene Crash Images | More NBC5.com Images Rescue crews working around an SUV appeared to be trying to extricate someone from the vehicle. They pulled a stretcher up to the automobile, but around 2:20 p.m., crews took the stretcher away empty and spread a white sheet over the vehicle's shattered windshield. Moments later, authorities pulled a person out through the driver's side of the wrecked SUV and placed the victim on another stretcher. People who had gathered around the scene began to applaud when the victim moved his or her arm and was wheeled away to a waiting Lifeflight helicopter, which took off at 2:30 p.m. ************************************************************** I was just watching some of the footage. Exactly why I stay far away from gravel trucks (fyi - they are completely repaving Pulaski from about 147th ish to 159th so it is one lane each way).

QUOTE(NYSox35 @ Oct 18, 2005 -> 02:08 PM) Oh well, I think I'm going to fly in to Chitown and hit up a tailgate, Jimbo's or Bourbon St. with friends anyway. I will be at Bourbon St the night of 10/22 with my girls (bachlorette party). Thankfully I live around the corner so if I start feeling happy, I am just a few blocks from home!

QUOTE(kapkomet @ Oct 18, 2005 -> 01:55 PM) you know what? We ALL knew it was going to be this way. I think we need to stop b****ing now and move on and get ready to cheer our asses off. Exactly! I am just thrilled to say the opportunity was there and I tried.

QUOTE(Rex Hudler @ Oct 16, 2005 -> 11:52 PM) One of my best friends died at 26. Even after the autopsy and toxicology reports, they could not find a cause. He went to sleep normally one night and never woke up. It went down as natural causes. Sometimes the heart skips a beat and never starts back up. He was about 6'5 and not really heavy, but not skinny. Not sure if that has anything to do with it or not. It's sad but it does happen. Sounds like what happened to my dentist's son.

QUOTE(Heads22 @ Oct 18, 2005 -> 12:23 PM) Cold Hard b****? I was asking for wedding reception music not theme songs!

I checked ebay at 12:45 and there were 495 auctions (or some number above 400) for world series Sox tickets.

QUOTE(SnB @ Oct 18, 2005 -> 12:33 PM) i had a 2 minute wait for game 1 at 12:01.....nothing. Ditto

QUOTE(kapkomet @ Oct 18, 2005 -> 12:21 PM) the only thing left now are singles fyi I tried that and got nothing. Oh well.

QUOTE(Flash Tizzle @ Oct 18, 2005 -> 12:11 PM) I find it depressing I accessed the main request page for tickets immediately after 12:00, filled in the seating and "best available" option, typed in the correct verification word, and found myself at a page which suggested no tickets were available. At 12:00 and 40 seconds, can this sit legitimately tell me there are no tickets available? That is exactly what happened to me. Oh well. I am happy that I had an opportunity to try for tickets.
