Billy Goats, Bulls, and things of that nature


Ever hear of the "Curse of the Billy Goat," also known as the Cubs Curse? Do you recall the Saturday Night Live sketch in which a short order cook would yell out to incoming patrons: "Cheezborger! Cheezborger! No fries, cheeps! No Pepsi, Coke!"? All of the above have one thing in common: the World Famous Billy Goat Tavern, a Chicago legend since 1934. It’s a little place in Chicago next to the United Center (home of the Bulls) where I got to enjoy a meal with my son Cameron, Uncle Kevin, and nephew Austin. We arrived early for the Bulls vs. Bucks game and so we decided to step inside the trendy eatery. Yes, I had the cheezborger. The meat was questionable but the bread was outstanding! And here’s the thing…they serve fries. By the way, the Bulls pulled off the victory 103-99.
