Uh . . . Nevermind

So . . .

Yeah . . . Turns out the sign mentioned in Grandpa's last post ended up inside the stadium near Gate K. We apologize to anyone emotionally traumatized by our earlier assumption.

The Signs New Home

More Signage At Wrigley Field?

It looks to me like the Cubs are about to add some another advertisement to beautiful Wrigley Field.

Last season there was quite a hubbub around that giant Toyota Sign being installed. Ol Mr. Ricketts did his darnedest to tell us how important is was and not to worry about it hurting the quality of the stadium. He also said - to our relief - that he had no intentions to install other signs along the outfield.

Well sir, I was quite surprised to spot a rather large advertisment on a flatbed beyond the left field foul pole. This sure does look like a sign to me and judging by the large cherry picker parked behind it, I'd reckon this thing is destined to be hung somewhere on this stadium we love. 

UPDATE: Nevermind

Giant Noodle Invades Wrigley Field

Anyone else have a hankering for some Mac-N-Cheese?

You gotta hand it to the Cubs front office - they are quick learners. 

They saw how difficult it was to install a Toyota Sign after telling everyone about it before hand. So with their next ad - they just threw it up... and it kind of makes me want to throw up.

That there monstrosity on Clark Street is an advertisement for Kraft Mac-N-Cheese. Why in god's name it would make people want to eat that junk is beyond me. But I have a feeling this is just the tip of the advertising iceberg. Part of the Ricketts braintrust was quoted in the paper as saying - "We’ll continue to generate incremental revenue for the ballclub so we can continue to help the performance on the field,” Good luck with that.
