LVSoxFan Posted February 2, 2007 Share Posted February 2, 2007 I just remembered that. So what will be the home base? Everybody's going to go west now a few blocks? I'm curious what other Soxtalkers will be calling home in '07 for pre- and post-game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GoSox05 Posted February 2, 2007 Share Posted February 2, 2007 (edited) catchers and millers tap(puffers). I like those bars cause there within walking distance of my house. Any bar you can crawl home from is good in my book. Edited February 2, 2007 by GoSox05 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry Chappas Posted February 2, 2007 Share Posted February 2, 2007 I am a sucker for Cobblestone's. You can park for free south of 39th and have a nice walk through the bombing huge houses going up around there. The bartenders are real fans but the mgmt is getting a little out of hand. They have a parking lot as well butthe cost is getting funky. They lack neighborhood pull as they have a small beer garden but can't use it. It blows Jimbo's away but it is a walk.

Hangar18 Posted February 2, 2007 Share Posted February 2, 2007 I know ............ I cant tell you how much of SHOCK its going to be for me, when that place isnt there anymore. Its easily been years and years that its my pre-game ritual, walk by, say hello, grab a beer, and when the games got more crowded, meet up with whomever, grab a beer, and walk in to the park. I still think that its ridiculous that Jimbos is the closest bar to the ballpark ......... there really needs to be a couple places added across the street I also love the fact that when former SOX pre-game host Dave Wills is in town, he makes sure to stop in and say hello too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LVSoxFan Posted February 2, 2007 Author Share Posted February 2, 2007 Yeah that's the bummer about non-Jimbo's bars (I've been to a few). Us North Side losers have to walk all the way back to the el. Oh well! What's another 15 minutes! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
