Exactly. It means going there isn't about seeing a baseball game and they're comfortable with that. It's about having "the Wrigley Field Experience". I don't think I'd have a problem with that if we hadn't turned "the Wrigley Field Experience" into the Platonic ideal of baseball viewing. It isn't. They don't even have that much to do with each other.

Watching a baseball game is awesome. Wading in ankle deep urine, drinking gallons of Old Style, hitting on trixies, and watching Darwin Barney, starting infielder is something different entirely.
