Dear Big Fan,

Thank you for being a part of our first ever Opening Night at Wrigley Field. With more than 35,000 fans in the ballpark, it was one of our best-attended home openers in relation to available seating.

We also need to apologize for the restroom wait times last night. One of the principal goals of the 1060 Project, the restoration and expansion of Wrigley Field, is the improvement of our restroom service throughout the ballpark. Once complete, we will see a 40 percent increase in restroom capacity.

Unfortunately, current construction has caused a temporary reduction in left-field concourse services, and on Sunday, we experienced a temporary malfunction of existing restrooms in the upper deck. The combination of events led to unacceptable wait times throughout the ballpark. Available restroom facilities in the right-field concourse were not altered from 2014 levels.

Four new restrooms, two women’s and two men’s, in the left-field concourse will be available in late May. Once completed, restroom capacity in the left-field concourse will exceed our 2014 levels.

Beginning tomorrow night, we will supplement existing restrooms with portable units in the left-field concourse and outside Gate K. With these facilities in place, we will have approximately the same number of fixtures as we did at the end of the 2014 season. In addition, we are working with our gameday staff to help coordinate concourse traffic by communicating shortest wait times at all concourse facilities.

We strive to deliver best-in-class service to our fans and hold ourselves to high standards.

We appreciate your patience and for bearing with us as we work to restore Wrigley Field. We are committed to ensuring ongoing construction does not lessen your experience at our ballpark. We will continue to monitor wait times and overall construction activity and will communicate developments as we go.

Sincerely,

Crane Kenney
Cubs President of Business Operations

Crane Kenney is one of the best business ops execs in professional sports. Good open letter.

Aren't most Cubs home openers sellouts?

Does one port-a-potty "fixture" equal the capacity/throughput of one trough? (Is this an apples-to-apples comparison?)

Due to the age and nature of Wrigley, I can't see the service ever being "best-in-class" compared to modern facilities.

How can it not?

Didn't they open at night in 1989? I could be wrong on that.

Any confirmation on the rumor that back during the Dusty years the Cub couldn't get in any extra fielding practice because Crane and his frat bros were running around the diamond playing major leaguer?

Why is the word apologize in all-caps?

Dear Crane,

Fuck you for being a part of our first ever Opening Night at Wrigley Field. With more than 35,000 fans in the ballpark, I was hoping you would not be one of them.

I will not apologize for the restroom incident last night. One of the principal goals of the 1060 Project, the restoration and expansion of Wrigley Field, is the improvement of your restroom service throughout the ballpark. We where suppose to see a 40 percent increase in restroom capacity.

Unfortunately, having Bryant in AAA has caused a temporary reduction in run production, and on Sunday, we experienced a malfunction of the offense to knock a fucking run home. The combination of you still being employed by the Cubs, bad offense and a extra large chilli dog, led to a Big Fan gastrol explosion . Available restroom facilities where not available in time and I splattered over the E.Banks sign. Again I will not apologize to Ernie, He is dead. My only regret is that a Cardinals fan was not standing in front of that sign.

Sincerely,

Bigfan
CSMB President and hair club member.

I knew the Cubs would end up apologizing to their fans this season. I just didn't think it would be this early in April.

You could say the Cubs offense is constipated.
