Hockey is coming to Wrigley
Even though it’s winter and we’ve had a lot of snow, things are hopping in Wrigleyville in anticipation of Thursday’s Winter Classic. The last report I heard was that the ice had been laid but because of our warm weather, storms and tornado watches, painting of the ice was put off until today. Once the ice is painted it will take a few hours to dry, another layer of ice will be applied over that and then the lines and logos will be painted on. Officials say they are on schedule for Thursday’s game. I’ll be there. It’ll be interesting seeing a hockey game in my favorite baseball venue.
