You know how you turn on WGN to watch a cub game, and you see the same guy, sitting in the same seat, in the front row, wearing a pink hat and a green shirt all the time? Well...that's, "THE PINK HAT GUY of Wrigley Field."

WORLD WAR 1 POSTERS

Posters helped mobilize the nation for World War I. They called for sacrifice and participation. Citizens were asked to contribute time and money, to produce products, to conserve resources, and to contribute to the war effort in personal ways.

WORLD WAR II POSTERS - Guns, tanks, and bombs were the principle weapons of World War II. But there were other forms of warfare as well. Poster Art waged a constant battle for the hearts and minds of the American citizenry just as surely as military weapons engaged the enemy.

MICHIGAN CITY, INDIANA Many years ago, my family owned a summer cottage on the shores of the Indiana Dunes. We swam in the lake, played catch on the beach, and caught fish off the pier.

    Born in 2000, I can only dream if they could have kept this beautiful ball park as it is. Why must they have torn down someghing that never had to be. Curse you jerry. You have stripped too much from this team. A team that I love and now have grown to hate. This place could have been like wrigley, which I even admit i love going to.

    Cool video however I'm disappointed in fake news. The Canada goose it's not really a permanent resident nor anything with Canada besides being there. But I guess it's like all Canadians they fly South for the Winter. I heard Florida is nice also they stop in my property. In pennsylvania it's cool

    The White Sox were so disappointing last season that I truly struggle to think about them without getting sick. Seriously shaken as I watched them swing at pitches 8 inches out of the box, base running that would make the San Diego Chicken blush and management that literally travelled through a time warp. Maybe it wouldn’t have been so bad if they weren’t picked to run away with the weakest division in the league. This clip made long for 80’s and 90’s CWS.

    This park should never have been torn down. They should have restored it AND left the neighborhood taverns/businesses around it intact. The blue-seated atrocity across the street may have come with all the “bells & whistles”, but it possessed NONE of the history, charm or mystique of it’s grand predecessor, the TRUE Comiskey Park. The old park took with it a great deal of the team’s hard earned character. I loved the White Sox, but it took me years to feel the same passion I held before they ‘86’d our beloved ballpark.

    I figured away to tell a male Canada Goose from a female Canada Goose. For starters; males are a little bigger and appears a tad heavier. Their black tail feathers a little bit more longer than the females tail feathers. Please correct me if I am wrong. Very entertaining and educational. I ❤ the music..

    I love the pairing of this music with these Hopper paintings! Lovely! I don't think they reallly go with the mood of the paintings but they certainly go with the eare in which most of his best work was completed. Hopper was a crusty old SOB but his paintings were so profound. He was a great painter like Artie Shaw was a great band leader

    I loved that ballpark and was lucky enough to travel and see a game in 1982 vs the A’s. They made a mistake and should of just refurbished it like the Cubs did. Can you imagine what a “gem” it would be if it was still here in 2022.

    Thanks for this video. I grew up at this park and learned to LOVE the game of baseball at the "Baseball Palace of the World". It was here that my father taught to me to always keep my on the game because you never know when a ball may come your way. I also found $80 next to one of the commodes under the center field scoreboard when I was 10 years old(I am 50 now). Saw what I believe to be a game I will never witness again(and one of the reasons I love the game of baseball) on July 1, 1990 when Andy Hawkins of the New York Yankees no hit the White Sox and lost 4-0. Saw Ozzie Guillen and Craig Grebeck hit back to back home runs off of Nolan Ryan. Great memories of a bygone era!!!
