Cubs Marketing Brain Surgeon Wally Hayward wants to throw "family friendly" street festivals outside of Wrigley Field during the Yankees, Cards and White Sox series this summer. These three day carnivals would take over Sheffield Ave from The Sports Corner on Addison to Murphy's Bleachers over on Waveland. Between fans drinking all day in those two bars and in the bleachers it's going to be very "family friendly" - complete with that drunk uncle no one wants to hang out with.
It looks like The Sports Corner's taking this carny idea seriously with the install of their new sign. This thing is so cartoonishly large, so completely out of scale with the building and the neighborhood, that it's perfect for a carnival.

I hear partying in Wrigleyville before or after a game is a blast. Still have never been to a Cubs game...
