Fenway Park. Area is surrounded by some really cool bars and brew houses. It's hysterical watching the kids from BU down the street at the games. Almost as entertaining as watching the Red Sox beat the Yankees!

Wrigleyville will always be #1. I just can't stand some of the residents of Wrigleyville who complain about any kind of changes that are made to the park. Example: lights, nightgames, and a expansion/remodeling plan they have proposed. These people act as if Wrigley was just built. Hello, you people moved into a neighborhood with a ballpark, noone made you live there so stop complaining, if you don't like it move!

Cub Fan - <BR><BR>Based on your post, I'm going to have to guess that you are very young (which your writing style suggests), very naive or both. The issues that come up between the Cubs and neighborhood property owners/taxpayers (both business and residential) are typical of standard land use issues that arise in ALL neighborhoods througout the country. Government mechanisms (i.e., petitions, hearings, etc) are set up in every locale for dealing with this sort of thing, that being a proposal for change that could have a significant impact on the neighborhood. People have the right to address and debate these types of issues, no matter where they live. "If you don't like it, leave" is the sort of statement that comes from a complete simpleton.

I'm guessing that Cubs Fan still lives with his parents in Schaumburg, has a mullet and leaves his Budweiser bottles in the parkway in front of homes of Wrigleville residents.
