There's a place called The Duke of Perth, just west of Wrigley Field, and the Cubs' caterer will work with them to have haggis in the reserved suite at the ballpark for our kitties :) I believe U.S. Cellular Field uses the same caterer, so I would think they can deliver to the kitties' sky box there as well.
By the way, the Cubs' front office has also extended an invitation to our pipers and dancers for both the National Anthem and the 7th Inning Stretch.
Hey Pinot! I've been trying to call you sweetie, but no answer!
Can you pick me up at the airport?? Please call me back ASAP.
Purrs,
Sophie

The Cubs have invited them to come for a tour of the stadium before the game. Groucho was thrilled when I told him they will have haggis at their skybox. I heard a loud cheer when he told the others.
I got a call from the Duke of Perth confirming the haggis arrangements. It's a 1:20 start so I requested 10:15 AM delivery. That way the haggis will be there while the pipers and dancers are warming up. Wrigley Field's catering company is giving some thought to adding haggis and other Scottish foods to the current ball park menus :)

Hi Meowm
The Cell skybox is very nice!
Cubs won!
We ate haggis and the pipers and dancers rocked!

Got an e-mail from Groucho:
Hi Meowmie and Soncat, We're having so much fun here in Chicago. The ball game was very exciting but no fly balls came our way. When we got to our skybox a table was filled with haggis, shortbread, crab legs, shrimp, ribs, Chicago Pizza, and hot dogs. Everything was soooo yummy. Tomorrow the Cubs invited us to come out early, they're going to let us practice with them and run around all the bases. We can even chase after the baseballs during batting practice. Cassie is taking us sightseeing so I have to go. See you whenever.
Purrs and kisses,
Your Groucho
I just got a voicemail from the boys: Bagpipes playing "Take Me Out To The Ballgame" along with two kitty voices trying to sing(?) along.:rolleyes:
I have the feeling there were two 'BFFF's' involved there! ;)
Oh! That's what it is! I heard a voice mail from Sophie and I heard something like...Quote:

Well, it's good to know all the kids are having fun while I work... (sigh)
Message from Cassie:
Hi Meowm
Sox led the series 3 games to 2 - They play again at Wrigley a week from Friday. Would you confirm the haggis order?
It's supposed to rain tomorrow so I am not sure what we're doing. On Friday we are going to Arlington Park to meet the Horsies! Beyond that I don't know. We'll swing by the Eli's factory store for cheesecake on our way up there.
Would you go to the feed store and get Chicken Soup dry food for us. And some carrots for our horse friends from the supermarket, please.
I'll call you tomorrow.
Lubz,
Cassie
Text message from Franklin:
I :love: baseball. I want to be a team mascot - can you make that happen?
And all the fans thought the bagpipes were the best ever - can you buy me a new kilt?
Text message from The Princess:
BFFF and I rocked the house. Please arrange singing lessons for Sophia and me with either Madonna or Lady Gaga. If it's Lady Gaga, tell her not to wear the meat dress - might be too distracting for Soph and me.
Oh and please increase the CC limit. Girls must shop, you know.
sheesh......:rolleyes:
Text from CAssie...
