My Ultimate Cub Audition

Since I was coming from Indy, had to get up early in the morning for the nice drive up to Chicago.  My girlfriend and her daughter joined me for the trip, not sure who was more excited about this trip, me or them.  Anyway, we got up to Wrigley at arounf 10 a.m. for my 11 a.m. time slot.  The staff was incrediably nice and helpfull.  We checked in and found the group I would be with.  I had to audition in Super Suite 1 (first time ever in a suite so that was neat). I was in line with a guy who came up from Arkansas, so I did feel so bad about my trip.  The man who was ushering our group around said he had one from California and two from Texas as well, so they are coming from all over for this.  I walked in to the room, they asked me the simple question of "why it should be me" and then I did my singing or butchering of the song.  I dont know if I get any further in this, but man I had a great time.  Talk to a news reporter from channel 2 there in Chicago and he said he was coming down with his son for the Brickyard 400 so we tried to give him some tips on were to go.  I hope everyone who participated in this had as good an experience as i did and good luck to all.
