Great. Now I hope they dont blow it up and turn it into spaghetti sauce, because thats what they are prone to do with baseballs at that resteraunt for some strange reason.....

Harry Caray was the White Sox announcer before the Cubs.

Yeah, Harry started all that "cutsie cubbie stuff" with the White Sox lest anybody forget. In the early 80's the cubs didn't draw dick. Then Harry got in and became the legend, the man, and the myth. And I think they might just blow up that ball and eat it. I guess the cubs are hungry too but they still don't know for what yet.

thanks for posting, I may try to see that

I hate how Cubs fans always talk about Harry and how great he is to sox fans and they forget that he was originally a white sox.

Harry Caray was a horrible announcer, but everyone loved him. Bleacher bums in particular because he drank as much as they do.

 

Goes to show if you drink enough and have a major stroke, you, too can become a patron saint.

I wonder what recipe incuding a baseball STARTS a curse??

The thing that gets me is that Cub fans remember Harry Caray as just being with the Cubs and nobody else. He was with the Sox before the Flubs.

 

The Cubs wouldn't know what World Series memorablia is!

 

I always liked Harry Caray as an announcer and remember for being with the White Sox.

We know, so what? He's a Cub icon and they can have him. Why the Eff is WS stuff at that restaurant??

i'm half way there!

Wasn't he with the Cards before he was with us though?

Yep.

Cards, A's, Sox, Cubs, if I recall.

Yeah, but when you hear Harry Caray, you think Cubs. And everyone around the country does too, thanks to WGN.

But Harry never sat in the Bleachers during Cubs games with a Falstaff in one hand and a fishing net to catch Home Runs in the other.

So we should embrace it and turn the place into a Sox bar then. Let's get the place filled with Sox stuff and have nothing but people wearing Sox Jerseys in there.

That's pretty much how it already is these days.

Hmmmm...good point Steff. I wonder when we walk in there, if there are any cub fans, will cub fans come up and ask, "Why are you a Sox fan?" And when I go in there, if they have a suggestion box, I'm going to stuff it with Sox names for their food ala The Soxtober Onion, The Big Munch, Early's coffee, The McCuddy. Those were on the fly, any good sox names for Harry Caray items?

Good point, after the Flubs don't know what a World Series win is! (LOL)

Is there more than one Harry Caray's restaurant? Because the one downtown has always been and still is a Cub fan hangout......and that ain't changing.
