Don't worry about the mules, just load the wagon!!
Only been to 1 and 10. But 10 was a very cool experience. It was a sparse crowd and during the 7th inning stretch they did a dance time showing people in the crowd. I got about 15 seconds of time on the big screen. I guess a 50 year old nerdy guy busting some moves is big in Pittsburgh.

Remember, CJ, the Steel City is the setting for “Flashdance”, they probably thought you were auditioning. Too bad you didn’t have someone throw a humongous bucket of Gatorade on you as you gyrated to the music.

For better or worse (probably for worse) my time at KU perfectly coincided with the Disco Era. Sometimes I struggle to believe that era was real. But that era was relatively short-lived and seemed to give way to the Cotton-Eyed Joe two-step, line dance era. I admit to having an abiding fondness for the Bee Gees. So even at 60+ I have not forgotten how to bust a groove, much to my kids dismay!!

Anyone that is looking to go to Wrigley should go on a weekend day game when the Cub and Cardinals are playing. You can feel the history oozing from the time you first walk in. It is also hilarious to watch the banter between the cubs fans and the cardinal fans. Wrigley field was made for day games.
