Chicago Trip 2004
RECAP
Wow - what a weekend, eh! I have to say I walked around that whole
town from Wrigleyville to Greektown, to the bars at Rush & Division and
to Soldier Field - all weekend with my chefs hat and apron on and not
one problem. Thanks to all Chicagonians for all your hospitality and
showing us folks from Philly an absolute great time! I finally did get
to tailgate and that was with a bunch of Eagle fans and Bears fans after
the game. Thanks to the crew with the brats and turkey leg and how
about Miss Argentina 1999 doing a keg stand - she is still very hot!
The boys in the Mobile Cigar truck were also big favorites of TGR. The
weekend went as planned with plenty of pubs along pub crawls the 4 pub
crawls that were embarked upon. What a dynamite town for bars! It was
great running into so many Bird fans and a special thanks goes out to
the PTA girls from Indy, Philly and Little Rock - especially the Philly
girls - wow - they make us guys seem like choir boys! And when the dust
settled, the Eagles were 4 - 0! This was different from Jacksonville
two years ago and the road trip that all others will be judged upon in
the future - Miami last December, but Chicago was everything and then
some as far as having a lot of fun with fellow fans. And we all got
home safe!

There will be a Tailgate Russ Eagles/Bears Road Trip 2005 tee shirt
coming out soon. The same cartoonist who designed the Jacksonville and
Miami shirts is working on this one. Should be a riot - myself, the
Eagle and a wounded Bear on a pub crawl - all very colorful - should be
a collectors item! More information will follow.

More information will follow, but shoot me an e-mail to tailgateruss@aol.com if you would like one.
