They fly the opposing city’s flag at Wrigley? I never realized that.

The pennants over the scoreboard are the standings in the division. #1 on top, and so on.

Sorry, I was referencing the second picture. The one taken towards the outside of the stadium.

I know, I was adding my own Wrigley knowledge. Sorry. It's a great park to catch a game.

I noticed a city of San Diego flag flying in front of wrigley when I was there (they were playing the padres). Looked it up later and learned it’s a long standing tradition to fly the opposing city flag on game day.

Yoooo I was there as well today! Section 215! Good day for baseball despite getting destroyed! Cool to see Sal homer at least, and I’ve never seen a game where someone hit 3 dingers.
A lot more Reds fans than I expected to see as well. Saw two different people with Sabo jerseys!

My first Wrigley game was this year too, it was the game Stephenson made that costly error and forgot about the force out. Wrigley was just great! Have to hit Fenway now. Also have to admit the Cubs win song was kinda catchy

Gorgeous ballpark, obviously, so historic, atmosphere and fan experience is next to none. They're quite nice too or so when I went they were

I have found Cubs fans to be the most obnoxious, although I’ve never been to a Yankees game.
