Oddly enough in 2009, none other than the Bears are visiting the Charm City on December 20th @ 1:00. So, what I'm thinking is to have a family party on that Saturday the 19th followed by a 5 hour tailgate and game the next day... The tickets are $165 face value (club level = under cover, heated concourse, plush chairs inside, tons of flat screens, impeccable bars...) but my old man will take $100 as an FPT discount so no excuses! But it gets better - if any of you boys from ChiTown want to make a weekend trip out East, your ticket and tailgate is free (of course you can stay with pretty much any of the locals)! I know it's a shot in the dark but I thought the match-up was a sign from the gambling Gods.
What I need everyone to do is talk it over with the families, get out that December calendar, and with a Sharpie - block out that weekend! Let me know your intents ASAP because I only have 6 total tickets (Conley and myself are already in...that leaves 4).
