So what? That doesn't mean they don't know what it is or where it is.

Do some fans still refer to U.S. Cellular Field as Sox Park?

I stood up in a wedding there in '84 on the Saturday night the Cubs lost to the Padres. Everyone was in the bar watching. The poor bride.

Yes. But if you asked them what and where US Cellular Field is, they'd know.

You stated that you doubted people would know what or where Willis Tower is.

That is dumb.

So what, SHARK? You say, "Sox Park" people will still know where that is. People know what is and where it is if you say, "The Cell" too.

That's true, but there are some old school people that won't refer to certain places by their current name.

Damnit Frank. If we're gonna continue to double team SHARK, we need a better gameplan.

That I can agree with.

What I can't agree with is the moronic statement of "If you say Willis Tower, people won't know what it is or where it is."

She obviously knows something the average bum doesn't. But on the surface, that does seem like an odd move...

This. I took four years of German in high school, and every year we took a trip to Chicago that ended with a trip to Zum Deutschen Eck. Sauerbraten and Spaetzel were great. I hear it's condos now. I loved that place.
