Curious if you guys wanted to share a pic of where you normally settle in to watch a Cubs game. This thread may go nowhere if folks are creeped out with privacy concerns. But, it could be a bar or other place. Hell, it could be Wrigley if you are a season ticket holder. just curious. Here's mine.  |

That's a solid place to watch a game.

It's a work in progress Czar. The far wall is reserved for autographed bats and balls from players from the next Cubs championship team. Hopefully I fill it this year.

I'm re-modeling my basement soon into a man cave. Right now it's just bare dry wall and a bare floor. It'll be pretty sweet when it's all done, though. |

Thanks dude. I'm putting it together in sections.
I've got the Banks, Santo, Williams bats mounted. I got a Hector Villanueva bat autographed by Shawon Dunstin ready for mount. Why Hector Villanueva? My favorite player one year (yeah, I picked the wrong horse). And, I couldn't find a Hector Villanueva bat autographed by Villanueva (I tried).
Next is the Sandberg, Grace, Dawson bat section.

Thats a nice set up Kville. Is that an old A.E. Schmidt billiard table? This is my exodus for a game. Definitely not as fancy. The TV is on the other side..I used to have a whole room to myself...After a couple kiddies, I now get a corner of the den.  |

I'm the lamest pool player you've ever seen by the way. |

Ryno...My favorite is the Bears poster in the middle. I have a pal that works for the CTA. He stole it from the Subway for me. Not that I condone thievery usually! I made an exception this time.

I used to install for them. The table is ok. I thought I would improve over time. I haven't. I have a guitar in my office that I thought the same thing would happen. It didn't also. |

It might be worth the bucks. I have a guitar also. My wife bought it for my 29th berfday. Ten years later I can play ode to joy, House of the rising sun, and the beginning to Stairway to Heaven. Thinking about selling it. |

I thought I would use it for entertaining more. 3-4 times a year doesnt justify it. |

The cloth is no biggie since whomever buys it will be replacing it anyways. But it may increase the value to drop 200 bucks into the bumpers if they arent very active. Your pool table experience sounds like my buddies with his boat. He thought it would always be a summer-long party. Now that we are all older, we have to dust away the cobwebs the one time o' year we actually use it. |

For most of the year, my Cubs' den will be an iPad dock on my desk.
