JOE GOES WILD - DAY ONE
Rev. Joe Kendell took a little road trip to Chicago this week.
Usually serving as the Salad Bowl's spring training and minor league baseball specialist, the right reverend spent four days on a religious pilgrimage of sorts in the majors to the holiest of baseball shrines - and, in the process, visiting with many Cardinals and their fans as the Chicago Cubs played host to the St. Louis Cardinals at Wrigley Field
Rev. Joe and a close pal from Denver arrived at Chicago last Thursday evening, and took the famed Red Line "L" to Wrigley from their downtown Chitown perch. They grabbed a beer, watched the first inning on TV and saw a Cubs fan wearing some fur.
After snagging a pair of tickets, Rev. Joe and his pal settled in at Wrigley.
The following photos represent the first night of action.
It's nice to see Turtle from the HBO series "Entourage" getting out to meet the fans.
Nice getup, but the man could definitely use a sombrero.
The Rev. and his friend pay homage at the Shrine of the Blessed Futility, aka the "Bartman Seat."
It astounds the mind to think of how much vomit and spilled beer the hallowed ivy at Wrigley has absorbed.
