Denver Area Cub Fans

by Cubfansince1957 on Sep 27, 2007 11:06 PM CDT

Reading the Diaries from the Cub fans in St. Louis (it must be awful for you guys to put up with the Cardinals' crap) and in Indianapolis made me want to find out if there is a place in Denver where Cub fans hang out. I would love to watch Saturday's game with a bunch of good people dressed in blue. Is there such a place in the Denver/Boulder area?

Denver Cub Fans

Sound like a good plan! I live the Boulder area - what works for you?

Out here in Colorado; an Old Chicago location

In CO Springs we often go to the local Old Chicago location to watch the Bears when they are blacked out and find many Chicagoans naturally showing up.

I will be watching the game on the deck up at the family's mountain retreat home with a cooler and a few friends under awning if it is not too windy.

- because of all the cubs imagery.

i hope the rockies can hold on so we can see a cubs /rockies playoff game here in denver!

Denver Area Cub Fans

Dan:

I like Ivy Walls' idea about Old Chicago. Almost sad to say though, since they clinched tonight (not sure if they'll have the game on since it's now meaningless and there will be lots of college football), let's try and get together for a playoff game instead. Is the Old Chicago at Wadsworth and about 87th (west side of the road) good enough for you (and any other Denver area Cub fans reading this)? I used to go in there to watch Bears games years back, so I'll bet they'll have a spot for Cubs fans during the playoffs.

What do you think?

Go Cubs Go! Go Cubs Go! Hey Chicago, whadya say? The Cubs are going to win today!

Denver Area...

That will probably work for me, but unfortunately I'll be in LA on business for the first 2 games. For the clincher next Saturday, though... :)
I'll e-mail you at the address on your profile later this week, and we'll set something up!

Next Saturday

Dan:

That'll work for me.

To all of the folks who have responded to my post about the Denver area Cub fans, do you want to join Dan and I next Saturday? If we can get enough people, I'll call a place of our choice and see if I can get the manager to agree to give us a spot in front of a TV where we can get into some serious Cub fandom!

Go Cubs Go! Go Cubs Go! Hey Chicago, whadya say? The Cubs are going to win today!

Can't see the game today but...

...would love to get together with a bunch o folk for some of the playoff games. I live in Boulder but work in Denver so either works.

I have however been boycotting Old Chicago since they refused to play last seasons final game for some friends and me. Although meaningless game it was against the Rockies and it was on WGN which they had but chose to use that channel a football game for one other patron.

What annoyed me most was the arrogant bar manager saying this bar has nothing to do with Cub baseball when there was a huge picture of Wrigley Field right behind him.

I'll go to Old Chicago though if need be...

Finally... ...Go Rockies, still a little hope for playoff action here in Denver. Cubs in town in the post season would be sweet.

If the Cubs were an international soccer team they'd be called Scotland.

Screwed for Wednesday Night

Dear Folks:

A very good friend of mine asked me to join him for the Avalanche home opener Wednesday night about a month ago, and I said yes. Who would have known that it would be the Cubs' first playoff game. Does anyone know if Thursday's game will be a day or night game? If it is at night, I'd love to meet some of you guys anywhere in metro Denver, whether it's Old Chicago or whatever.

Sorry about that. Let's go all the way!

Go Cubs Go! Go Cubs Go! Hey Chicago, whadya say? The Cubs are going to win today!
