    Is this the start of a new tradition/pilgrimage for you when the Kings play the Hawks now, Rich?

    Keep the photos coming, I think they’re a good addition to the blog!

    @King Monkey,

    Neither did I. I thought it was a ginormous inflatable jump-house that was only erected in the spring and was taken down long before now.

    We seem to be getting images of Chicago’s shame today, first a prison shot, and then the prison yard.

    Is it a subliminal message of hate?

    @Doc. Mark 1968,

    EVERY building in Chicago is a prison Doc.

    It’s how they like it. ;-)

    Poor Cubs. Least Kings have been to the Finals in the last 40 years, but other than that we have a lot in common with Cub’s fans.

    I hope you’re not cursing us with that streak of failure by posting that picture here. We have enough of a problem trying to win a championship here as it is without THAT getting in our way….

    Rich, just wanted to say thanks for the amount of information you give to us. You work your ass off to feed us tidbits and information about our Kings and I certainly appreciate it. I’m hopelessly hooked on Kings Insider! But it is a good addiction……

    My favorite park to watch a ball game! Great atmosphere pre and post-game in Wrigleyville and in the park, super cheap beer prices, and great fans.

    Some interesting KARMA tweets.

    Chip Alexander 18 minutes ago

    Erik Cole not on bench.

    Chip Alexander Chip Alexander 15 minutes ago

    Cole and Jason Chimera traded off hits about eight minutes in. Chimera’s was more retaliatory.
