ASTON VILLA in Chicago



Tomorrow i am off to Chicago ! Never been so i am pretty excited .... this is not a hockey excursion . It is actually a trip to go see my favorite football club Aston Villa . They are on their American exhibition tour playing Philadelphia last night and winning 1-0 , they will play the Chicago Fire on Saturday and i have a ticket in the Aston Villa Supporters section .... it is gonna be rowdy , i am absolutely thrilled :)

Travelling with my girl friend and her friend , the ladies will keep themselves busy while i socialize with the other supporters at the pub . We have to drive down to Buffalo to catch our flight , saves a ton of time ! Flights from Toronto were about $400-$500 and flights from Buffalo were $209 when i booked them .... it is about a 90 minute drive to Buffalo so it is totally worth it . When we arrive in Chicago tomorrow we are doing what the ladies want ....sightseeing etc...

On Saturday i am getting HAMMERED ... here is the deal . I have to go to the autograph signing around noon then heading to the pub where our bus is picking us up to go to the pitch . The pub is the Halsted Harp at around 330 we pay $20 and get the all we can drink special :) 530 we leave for the game ( beer on the bus too ! ) this is just going to be unreal . I hope i can keep up and keep my head straight enough to at least remember this game after LOL . There is a whole bunch of supporters from the Toronto supporters club along with supporters from all over the place , it is going to be a riot ... i can't wait .

Gotta pack my bag ( really lightly ) ....
