Cemetery for Cubs fans in the works

[Stoner]

"A Chicago man and Bohemian National Cemetery on the city's North Side are joining forces to build for Cubs fans a final resting place that looks a lot like the spot where they saw their dreams of a pennant die year after year.

 

Called "Beyond the Vines," the 24-foot long ivy-covered wall is designed to look like the one in dead center at Wrigley Field."

Please offer your proposals for our own "resting place" in words, sketches, photos, whatever you got on you.

I think it should be on the grounds of Beth Steel. It has all the elements.

* View of the untapped lake,

* Shadow of City Hall and those wind mills

* Epitomizes the death of the local economy,

* Re-usable, ground is too toxic for anything other than a stadium, parking lot or a cemetery

* Room to grow

:thumbsup: Yeah but the funeral procession has to include a ride on a good old Lackawanna Railroad car and there needs to be an option to be cremated in one of the old coke ovens where they can dump your left over slag into the lake just like they used to right off woodlawn beach....

How about at the Rockpile. Sabres allumi could take turns being the undertaker!

Hey nothing would spruce up the waterfront like a bunch of dead people. At least it would be busy.

If you have those in-ground tmobstones that don't stick up out of the ground, it will look like a well-manicured park. An improvement over those indsutrial graveyards :P .
