June 18, 200520 yr They showed him on the jumbotron yesterday. When he noticed he was on he flipped on a sox hat and he got a huge roar! Vince!
June 18, 200520 yr I think he went to Lake Forest HS with Joey Lauren Adams. Hopefullyhe's a fan of the good guys. Either way, good actor
June 18, 200520 yr been in some good movies the past few years (Old School, Dodgeball), and we now have one up on the Red Sox in terms of celebrity fans (Ben Affleck sucks).
June 18, 200520 yr Anyway anyone has a picture of that? I know that's a stretch but I kinda want to see that.
June 18, 200520 yr QUOTE(bmags @ Jun 18, 2005 -> 09:58 AM) remember in swingers he was playing with the blackhawks on nhl 94... chicago love im gonna make gretzkys head bleed
June 18, 200520 yr It is cool to see a "celeb" at the ballgame. This is another step in making the southside "cool" again.
June 18, 200520 yr He is a Cubs fan, but he probably had the choice of seeing the Cubs or Sox and chose the Sox. Eventually it will not only be celebs making that choice if we keep winning. SB
June 18, 200520 yr Am I the only one that doesn't want to go down that Cubby road of pandering to s***ty celebrities who are only at the game because it's the cool thing to do? It was cool to see him at the game yesterday but I really don't want this to become a thing, where we watch for the next celebrity to show up in the Scout Seats. It's got a dirty little Cubs vibe to it. John Cusack!
June 18, 200520 yr If celeb's want to come to a Sox game and buy the most expensive seat in the house then so be it. They are just going to give JR more so we can go get players in the off-season.

They are just going to give JR more so we can go get players in the off-season. So if we get a couple extra celebs every once in a while that's going to help JR get more players? Um no. A Scout Seat ticket isn't that expensive, if it was like $3,000 a ticket I could see it making a difference but it's not. Celebs aren't going to buy much in consessions and aren't going to buy beer. A couple extra hundred dollars a week from some s***ty Celebrity is not going to help JR sign free Agents/trade for players and make this team better.

A couple extra hundred dollars a week from some s***ty Celebrity is not going to help JR sign free Agents/trade for players and make this team better. I'm saying if they kept coming and kept buying the most expensive seat, and considering that we are in first and a lot more people are coming out to see a game, JR just earns more money over a longer period of time, which would lead to getting players in the off-season because he would have more money to spend. I'm not saying he could go out and sign someone like A-Rod, but he could be able to sign players who fit into our style of baseball. Edited June 18, 200520 yr by sayitaintso
June 18, 200520 yr I don't care if he's a Cubs fan or a Sox fan. Guy is a helluva actor and got a huge ovation when he put on the Sox hat.
June 18, 200520 yr he got a huge ovation when he pulled on that sox hat. awesome guy. he's hilarious.
June 18, 200520 yr who the f*** is some poster to say whether he doesn't want vince vaughn to be there? We aren't gatekeepers. He can come any time he wants to.

I said I liked seeing Vince Vaughn at the game yesterday because I respect him as an actor and I have heard him say good things about the Sox in the past. However I don't like the idea of being at the Sox game and seeing David Schwimmer on the video screen and having the crowd give them an ovation for being at the game. They can come to the game I just don't like the idea of the fans applauding them for being there. It has a cubesque feel to it.

I think if David Schwimmer were to show up on the big screen, there would be a resounding "meh" from all in attendance.

I pretty much just pulled some s***ty celeb out of my ass that I know has no connection to Chicago or the White Sox. I like Vince Vaughn he's from the Chicago land area and has talked about the Sox in the past.
